I've had Bear Naked, Galaxy, and Artisanal granolas. Bear Naked is my chief brand, can't help it, the stuff's GOOD lol! But, I'm also atrracted to the Galaxy brand because I love it calorie and fat content, are great. Artisanal is good too and has alittle more nutrients&minerals in it than the other 2, yet all 3 are very healthy. Though BN is my main brand, I occassionaly switch between these 3 brands, due to their fat, calorie, carb and sugar contents are in the range that I like, unlike some other brands which are, let's say, a wee bit too much in those areas. :-)

Bear Naked is the best, definitely my favorite granola. I pretty much love all their flavors, but my very favorite might be the Mango Agave Almond from the Native line.

Who exactly told you the Native line wasn't being produced anymore? I work at Whole Foods and we sell three different Native flavors: the Mango Agave Almond, Maple Hemp Walnut, and Yumberry Gogi Currant. It's actually still a relatively new product, at least in my store. I haven't heard anything about it being discontinued.

Feed is another one of my favorite brands, I hope they come out with more flavors. I really like the Kashi Mountain Medley granola too.

I've made my own granola a few times, and it came out great, and it really is much more economical to make your own. For some reason though I still buy it much more often than I make it, convenience I guess, plus Bear Naked is as good as homemade in my opinion. And since a lot of their flavors get most of their sweetness from unrefined sugars, and the fat is mostly all good fat from nuts and seeds, I see no reason to feel bad about buying to my granola-loving heart's content :)

This really sounds intriguing. I must try it.

But I don't get the egg white/All-Bran (?)crust.

TORTIERE! It is an amazing French-Canadian Meat Pie and my mother makes it every Christmas Eve! It simmers ground beef, veal and lamb together for hours with spices and fills a buttery double pie crust and is baked to perfection! OMG!

Fried Apricot Pie at Pat's Barbeque in Fort Worth. Back when I was in high school a certain group of us from the nearby neighborhood used to hang out there after school and on weekends. Barbecue bologna sandwiches and fried pies were our staples along with the fountain-made cokes and 7-Up's to which you could get vanilla or cherry syrup added. But the apricot fried pie was the most delicious pie I have ever eaten...the crisp pie crust was tender and not greasy and was overloaded with pure mashed redolent apricots...that is all you could taste along with the subtle unctiousness of butter. I have never tasted a pie purer in flavor since.

I like this salad with some finely sliced fennel and black olives.

Pecan Pie...When I was young I always thought it looked gross...but once I tried one that my mom made, I was hooked!

I've made something similar, and it's really tasty - even better with some goat cheese crumbled on top.

The most memorable pie I ate was an apple pie in Oak Glen, California at the pick-your-own fruit orchards there that was piled high with delicious fruit.

my moms pumpkin pie was the best in the world :)

My mom's strawberry pie. I love it, and I don't even like strawberries that much. Yum!

The most memorable pie I've ever eaten was a creamy coconut pie made by my grandmother. She would use eggs from her own chickens and cream from her own cows. Oh, what a walk down memory lane.

My grandmother's Key Lime Pie, from fresh key limes grown in her own yard. She's been gone a long time, but I remember it as if it were yesterday.
