Best Foods I Tried at Expo West 2024

1

Clean Cause Yerba Mate - Mint & Honey

Clean Cause Yerba Mate drinks have long been in HEB, but they recently launched a new non-sparkling line they were sampling at the Expo.

Mint & Honey is my favorite of the new flavors and I love these drinks because they pep me up in the morning like nothing else. Yerba Mate is an organic tea with natural caffeine.

2

Doughy Cookie Dough

Doughy cookie dough is shockingly good for how simple and vegan the ingredients are. The one pictured is the peanut butter but the basic chocolate chip flavor is the one I was googling over. It has cashews, maple syrup, vanilla, baking soda, and chocolate chips.

I tried Waterloo's new flavor and it's delightful and perfect for summer.
