I spy…
1. Justin’s Nut Butter Company is set to release three new chocolate nut butters. Are you as excited about this as I am?!
2. The So Delicious Company is introducing Coconut Milk Kefir. Supposedly, kefir—a type of drinkable yogurt—stimulates digestion, enhances the immune system, protects against cancer, etc. The So Delicious Coconut Milk Kefir will have 10 live and active bacteria.
(I couldn’t find a picture of this not-yet-in-stores yogurt)
EDIT: Not only did I eventually find the kefir, but I fell in love with it! I see many kefir-themed sauces and more in my future 
3. The Larabar Company has introduced three new flavors—PB&J, Tropical Fruit Tart, and German Chocolate. Can you guess which one I’m most excited to try? Too bad I haven’t seen these elusive bars near me yet…
4. A new product I have been lucky enough to find:
Tofurky marinated tempeh strips—in three flavors: Sesame Garlic, Lemon Pepper, and Coconut Curry. These thin strips are perfect for stir fries, sandwiches, salads, or just snacking on plain! They look kind of like those Lightlife fakin bacon strips. (I’ve tried the sesame garlic flavor.)
EDIT:
New Product Alerts in honor of Pancake Week:
Hold the phone. Frozen French Toast and Pancakes that are vegan?! Am I reading this right?
Haven’t seen these in stores yet, but I think it’s pretty cool (and about time!) that they’re finally making such things.
EDIT #2:
Guess what I saw at Whole Foods the other day… Mini Larabars for sale! I didn’t buy a box, since I like my regular-sized Larabars (remember my opinion of the poor mini Luna?). But I know that a lot of you love these things, so I thought I’d spread the word!

In January, Amy’s Kitchen is coming out with a new vegan version of macaroni and cheese! Read more about it here.
That’s all for now! But be sure to check back for updates .
[...] added a New Product Alert page to the blog, which I’ll try to update whenever I hear of an exciting new product on the [...]
I heard about those larabars and have been keeping my eye out for them too!
I’m so excited!!! Can’t wait to try all that yummy goodness:)
OH
MY
GOD
So glad I clicked that link from your other post on to this HOLY PAGE!!!
What a cute idea Katie! I like this page.
Um German Chocolate Cake? Are you kidding me!? I heard they were coming out with new ones but I didn’t know what the flavors were… holy moly. You should come over and we’ll have a cake-feast. I’ll be on the lookout for these. Also chocolate almond butter?… Yes please!
New Larabars?!? SWEEEEET!
Thanks for being such a glorious source of new food finds! I also got the Justin’s Nut Butter email and am elated about the new chocolate nut butters — especially the chocolate hazelnut because I never ever tried Nutella (and am never going to). Fall can’t come soon enough!
Coconut milk kefir is exciting news too! I am really impressed with the Purely Decadent coconut milk ice creams, so kefir…that one should be good!
Coconut milk kefir? Woo hoo!
Hi CCV, I’m new to the blog world and just love yours! I learned about you from Susan at Fat Free Vegan. I love Lara Bars!!! I haven’t seen the new flavor in Hawaii yet. I don’t know if you have a Costco near you but you can get a whole box super cheap! It’s great!
P.S. I can’t believe someone would make such a rude comment about your eating habits. I haven’t even had the chance to explore your entire blog and I can tell you’re a well-rounded eater. That person didn’t even bother to read your blog! Anyways, keep doing your thing! Great response post!
Oh! I just saw the kefir product! SOOOO cool!! I’ll totally keep my eye out. Thanks for this page!
I just got a sample package of Larabars in the mail and two of the new flavors were included. Can’t wait to try them. I didn’t get the German Chocolate Cake one though
Frozen french toast sticks?! Yes!!! (I think Ian’s is the company that also makes frozen vegan french toast sticks, but don’t waste your money on those – they are just awful!)
P.S. I still haven’t found the new Larabar flavors! Drat.

!!! French Toast sticks !!!
I am very excited about Van’s products (we are gluten-free here). Also, the Justin’s PB and Lara bars…YUM!!!
AH, PB&J larabars!!!
OMG NEW LARABARS?????????
and coconut milk kefir??????????? you just got me sooo excited!!
thanks for all the product alerts! now i have stuff to look for to review for my product reviews!
Mini larabars sounds like a dream come true. I hate to harm the environment with all of the excess packing, but seriously I have NO portion control with those guys!
Thanks for the heads-up
The coconut milk Kefir sounds really interesting. I make kefir with soy milk quite often, so I might have a bash at making my own as I don’t expect it will make its way Merry Olde England.
I checked out the Van’s website — Van’s claims that all the organic and wheat-free waffles are vegan, but per the ingredients, they are NOT vegan. Grrrr!
(The two you posted are, of course, vegan.)
i was told by larabar that the minis are not available for their regular store customers! no way! and i can’t wait for the new flavors. i’ve been checking for them every time i go to whole foods or the co-op! but no, not here yet! i’m definitely going to be looking for those mini laras now. thanks for the update, chickadee.

I’m very excited about the coconut milk kefir!
Not only are those pancakes vegan… THEY ARE GLUTEN FREE!!!
Yay, new chocolate nut butters to try! I have some chocolate peanut butter from Target here that is disappearing rather quickly. I can’t wait to try the almond butter one.
Here’s a link to the page about the new coconut milk kefir. They’ve got photos and nutritionals there, too. I can’t wait to try the vanilla and the strawberry.

I just tried the plain kefir and all three new larabars!!

I probably won’t buy the kefir again, but the larabars are fabulous!!e
Mini Larabars at Whole Foods! How cute! I wish they would sell them individually so I could buy 2 flavors and eat them both instead of a regular-sized bar (for variety and fun, of course!).
Anyway, Larabar update: I have now spotted the 3 new Larabar flavors at one of my local WFM’s, but not all of them. Yet.
And where are those darned chocolate Justin’s nut butters! CCV and RRV want some NOW!

I still have yet to see those new Larabar flavors here in Vancouver! However, since my boyfriend is going to be in Seattle this coming weekend, he said that he’d stop at a wholefoods and grab some for me, as well as a few other things that I can’t seem to find here. Yayy
Just thought you should know there is a recall on some of the Vans pancakes due to undeclared wheat, egg and milk ingredients. Here’s the info: http://news.prnewswire.com/ViewContent.aspx?ACCT=109&STORY=/www/story/08-20-2009/0005080394&EDATE=

Some of the items marked “vegan” contain honey, as well. WTF?
