In case you haven't heard about Whole Foods, they are "Whole Foods Market is the world's largest retailer of natural and organic foods, with stores throughout North America and the United Kingdom."
Now, typically statements like make me avoid a place like the plague (screams We are the Walmart of grocery stores). But, in this case Sarah and I took the time to go check them out.
We were amazed to find that their product line (at least we guess it's theirs) 365 is almost completely safe for Chance to have. I would go as far as to say that 80-90% of the products we found in the 365 line were completely MSPI safe. Add to this their great selection of safe sausage and meat selections and the minimal price increase is more than worth it.
Just to give you an idea, Chance is so intolerant to Soy that he can't even have products that are prepared with Soy Oil (some people with MSPI can). We found French Fries in a multitude of shapes, sizes, and styles that he could have and that didn't have an ingredient list a mile long.
Yep, we are sold on Whole Foods.
In other news. We have finally launched our bakery (Dough) from our house and are taking orders. The products section still has a lot of work to be completed, but it is online. The best way to place an order is to figure out what you want and give us a call (phone number is on the contact page). I will say that some of our products do contain Milk, but we have marked them with an * to let you know. Typically these are products that are quite obvious (cheesecake as an example).
Future updates will include the complete ingredients listing for each products online, online purchase, and online shipment calculation as long as we can support the growing costs of developing the site.

Recipe for this post:
Apple Pancakes
1 cup flour
1 Tbs brown sugar
2 tsp baking powder
1/4-1/2 tsp baking soda
1/4-1/3 tsp cinnamon
1 cup apple juice or apple cider (we like cider)
1 egg
1 Tbs canola oil
Mix dry ingredients (flour, baking powder, baking soda, sugar and cinnamon) in a large bowl.
Mix egg and oil together in a separate container bringing to a complete emulsion. Add Apple Juice (Cider) to the egg and oil.
Pour the wet stuff into the dry stuff and stir about 10 times (till it just comes together). Let stand while you heat your skillet up to 300 Degrees Fahrenheit.
Depending on size, this recipe makes about 12-16 pancakes. They freeze well and reheat in the microwave in about 30 seconds.
