The Anti Dairy Fairy

Now I have to say food shopping comes way, way down on my list of enjoyable pursuits, I get bored trying to come up with different meals each week especially as by the time I get home from work I want to eat and don’t want to spend ages in preparation. It is at this time of night that I fall off the diet wagon and sneak a biscuit or a piece of cheese (dairy free cheese of course) or heaven forbid, a couple of chunks of chocolate.

Anyway, I digress, today we decided to go to a new Waitrose nearby and it was shopper’s heaven. I think Waitrose is really the only civilised supermarket in this country, it tops M & S in my book. The shops are light and airy – well the ones round here are – and the food is soooo good. Even the pre-packaged food looks so much better than in the bog standard supermarket. The downside to this shop is that I go in for just a couple of things and come out with bagfulls of food because it all looks so good.

The best thing for me though is the fact that they have a huge ‘free from’ section comprising of all sorts of goodies so that if you are dairy/lactose intollerant or coeliac there is actually a choice of goodies. They sell sheep and goats milk yoghurt as a matter of course alongside cheeses of the same ilk and various different types of milk.

I can’t praise them enough so if you have a store near you go on in, I dare you. Be warned, you will not come out empty handed.
