The vanilla flavored one was a bit sweet, but that's how I generally prefer it. I usually am throwing berries and granola in there too so admittedly can't give you an unbiased recommendation! I think there are plain flavored ones either almond or coconut milk based, which might be more of what you're looking for.

I've tried a few types of coconut-based yogurts that were tasty. I'm not a fan of almond milk, so didn't like those varieties as much. On the cheeses though, completely agree! I had one that was tolerable, but definitely falls in the "not good" category.

Thanks for writing all of that, it's very interesting! I can see how that would be an effective system, but as you said, very difficult to implement in the U.S. anytime soon. Even making some incremental changes would help, as I would think there would be good evidence from systems like yours. We shall see I guess!

Sorry to hear that, man. It's definitely a sad situation all around. The apathy of so many is hard to overcome, then there are those like you mentioned who cling to cults of personality or are just looking for a savior. Democracy is still hanging on, but it's in a rough spot.

But how long would those appointments be? Many justices have written about how long it took to adjust sitting on Scotus, even if they had plenty of experience on the court of appeals(Sotomayor I think?). So like a 10 year period might work. Scalia and RBG voted together a surprising number of times... So there is something to the experience brought to the table. Thomas's corruption is just nuts and Alito is frustrating, but the other justices at least have substantiating arguments mostly.

Ooph, that hit home for me. I got that in a bundle with King's Quest and Space Quest(which were both amazingly entertaining at the time) as a pre-teen and just kept going through the questions to learn all the answers. I hadn't heard of Carlsbad Caverns before then and when my wife brought up possibly visiting there this summer, it took me back to that glorious game.

Mmm, had to look up sultanas but they sound like a great addition! My kids like it sweeter of course, but I love the mix of dried fruit and crunch. Will have to play around with it some, but thanks for sharing!

I aspire to be like your wife and be able throw it all together. My family loves granola with yogurt, so I need to practice. I have everything but the cranberries on hand. Sounds delicious, thank you!

I know it's fairly simple to make but I haven't taken a stab yet. Do you mind sharing your recipe for the granola?
