Wowsy! These plant-based, gluten-free croquettes flipped my life upside down. I once dreamed I ran into my ex-business partner, Mordecai Rubenstein, out in South Hampton. It’s always awkward with him, he’s got this vibe that makes me feel like I have to say something smart about money or business, instead of just being a human being. We made money together dissecting our juice business, chasing that so-called “magic product” that was supposed to rocket us into stardom. Funny thing is, the magic was sitting right in front of us the whole time. Keep it real, pure, happy, brilliant, that’s all we had to do. We did exactly none of that, and the rest is history. Don’t get me wrong, for a guy with no degree and no diploma, I did alright. Actually, I did great. And if there really is such a thing as a magic product, good looks, brains, humor, money, and talent rolled into one, it’s these croquettes. Mordecai, swing by the shop. I’ll give you a hug, a plate of croquettes, and you can keep wondering why you had all the brains and I ended up with all the talent. Deliciousness has never been so plant-based and baked. Served with peppercorn dressing.

Sensations: Full and happy. Plant protein has every amino acid you need. Eat enough calories from a variety of plants and you get all the macros and micros. Deficiencies come from bad habits and lifestyle slip ups, not from skipping flesh foods. Relax, fix the mistakes, and let your body handle the rest. Come by the shop and I will pontificate if you really want. I am here for you. Just do not be annoying. I love you.
