Fruity Friday

Alright people, listen up (well technically it's reading, but I'm not in the mood for slight technicalities today):

So, as my beloved Facebook and Twitter friends have been reading I have 3 new fruity flavors and they kick puff! Key Lime, Strawberry and Coconut!

OK, I'm done bragging... nope, just kidding... I use REAL fruit juice in the Key Lime and Strawberry flavoured mallows and a coconut extract for the other. I gotta say, it's pretty cool with the fruit juices because each batch is just as good as the last, yet they each have their own distinctive flavour. For example, the strawberries I use may come from a different plot of land or may be experiencing a different kind of season. It's pretty cool, for those of you who can taste the differences in strawberries from each time you purchase them at your local grocer, you might get a tart batch one week and when you go back you get a sweeter batch or an earthier tasting batch... and those of you who haven't thought about it... start thinking! :-)

I'm going to start going for the locavore way of thinking here pretty soon, but not so much while I'm in my experimental jive here... I would love to support local farmers or even just Texas farmers! I'm hoping for a good season all around this year!
