Whole Foods

I'm generally a health nut when it comes to eating foods. If a Whole Foods Market was in my neighborhood, I'd die of happiness! I love how they have a hot and cold food bar of vegetarian and vegan foods. If I'm lazy to cook, I'd definitely get ready made meals from here often:

I never realized how much similarities these foods had to certain Filipino dishes as in the taste (same amount of vinegar used) and ingredients (the dish with eggplants reminded me of the veggie dish, Pinakbet . This is Reggie's kitten, Pushkin, he was begging for food the whole time we were eating. It was har...
