Color...what are your favorite white foods?
Nutrition experts recommend we eat "a rainbow of colors" daily. I'm compliant. Then I started thinking about how many white colored foods I also include in my daily intake.
Fage yogurt
rice pudding
milk
cauliflower
Haagen Dazs vanilla ice cream
cottage cheese
bananas (peeled)
mashed potatoes
In the hospital a "white diet" is often recommended to soothe nausea.
What white foods do you eat?

Yeah, JEP! Angel food cake is my favorite. Oh, and we can't forget cheesecake. Pears and Parmesan (yes, together!), too. And sourdough bread. This is hard. There are quite a few...

A lot of my favouites have already been said, but how about:

*Not strictly pure white, but has that pure and wholesome "whiteness".
