No More Puddles

Except for one!!

IMG_0667

A big puddle of drippy Wild Squirrel Chocolate Sunflower Butter!

IMG_0665

The squirrels sent us a few sample packets of new flavors at the bakery, and I couldn’t wait to try out this flavor since I love sunflowers. Believe it or not, that puddle is only about 1 tbsp (half the packet) because Matt had the other half (I do think I got the drippier half

Smile this !
)

He was home for breakfast after a run this morning! Hats off to the chef.

Whipped banana oatmeal with cottage cheese, sunflower butter and coconut!

Gone way too fast

    Oooh those new flavours (well, from the little bits I can see) sound delicious! I wonder if they’re available in stores yet? I’m intrigued by the one that appears to have espresso in the title!

      Agreed! I always want to try interesting flavors, but I’m nervous to commit to a whole jar. Packets are the way to go! Can you buy sample packets on the Wild Squirrel website?

            I stopped in today after work and sampled the “Sneaky Cinnamon” and “Curious Cocoa-Nut” flavors. Cocoa-Nut won the taste test…and it was so drippy! It would be perfect for breakfast “puddles” 🙂 Next time I come to the bakery I might have to buy some Wild Squirrel to take home…

    I love getting sample packets! I travel a lot, so they are perfect to take with to add to hotel oatmeal in the morning. the only downside is that you can’t really make overnight oats in a packet…

    I always look forward to your posts. I need to start jumping on the sunflower butter bandwagon. It looks amazing mixed with cereals and yogurts. I’m sitting here eating my bowl of wheaties wishing I had some.

    I have never heard of these squirrels…I must try. I just got into Justin’s almond butter (I had previously thought I didn’t like almond butter for some reason) so I’m excited to try some new stuff. Any idea whether they have them in Tennessee?

      The one I bought was this one: http://www.amazon.com/Zojirushi-NS-TGC10-Cooker-Warmer-Stainless/dp/B000MAERM0/ref=sr_1_8?ie=UTF8&qid=1337107682&sr=8-8

      Anything by the Zojirushi brand is bound to be good, but I have no experience with any other models

      I’m in college and we bought a really cheap one for our apartment, but my mom uses a nicer quality at home. Honestly I can’t taste the difference between the two and the amount of time is pretty much the same. I would look on amazon to get reviews for whatever price range you’re looking for, but I think they’re all pretty much the same (only my opinion!)

    Those Wild Squirrel flavors sound delicious! I’m having trouble storing my nut butters. I would love the drippy consistency that you have, but mine always stiffen with a layer of oil at the top. I know that some people prefer to store their nut butters in the fridge to avoid the oil separation, but I don’t like cold nut butters OR thick consistency. Do you suppose I’m just choosing poor brands or is there something I should be doing to avoid thick, separated butters? Thanks!!

    • KathEats says

      May 15, 2012 at 1:51 pm

      It might just be the brands. Mine don’t tend to separate that much – I just give them a few good stirs in the beginning

      I know you said you don’t like them cold, but in case you’re willing to give it a shot, I store my almond butter in the fridge upside down. It’s never thick and eliminates the oil separation, but I’m sure it varies by brand/kind of nut butter
