I've got to learn to read labels better.

While I was in Jenifer Street the other day I picked up some Tofutti Better Than Cream Cheese. I was talking to the cousin of an ex-boyfriend, and not exactly focused on what I had in my hands. I did the quick scan to see if there were animal ingredients (since one flavor does have salmon in it) and tossed it in my cart.

There's nothing quite so gross though, as blindly slathering your cinnamon raisin bagel in what you think is plain cream cheese, only to bite into garden vegetable at 6:30 in the morning. I was so busy talking and looking for animal bits, that I didn't even notice the obvious problem in that I was picking up the wrong flavor. Not that it tasted bad, it just didn't mesh with the bagel flavor.
