Let's Be Vegan

I'm Shantelle, the creator of everything here on LetsBeVegan.com. I'm from the Southside of Atlanta, so I'm the epitome of classy, bougie, and ratchet. Aside from my obvious obsession with making vegan food. My biggest flex in life is that I'm the mother to the most amazing human on earth, my son, Izzy, and proud dog mom to my gentle giant Rico. My life revolves around sharing my passion for plant based recipes and herbal medicine with the world.

Rico Plays The Piano??

Izzy's in high school.... Damn I'm getting old!

Bonjour Paris...

The Parasite Cleanse is leaving for good! Once the inventory is gone, that’s it.

This cleanse started it ALL. What started out as me sharing what I was doing quickly turned into something that I’m still trying to comprehend. I stated making each one by hand and I have made thousands of them. What began in my kitchen grew into a business that helps people find healing where traditional medicine has failed. What an honor!!

I’m so honored that so many of you have trusted me with your health. Parasite Cleansing can be so scary but so many of you put your faith in me and I am forever grateful.

If you’ve ever done the cleanse please let me know. ⬇️

Yall wish your internet nephew Happy Birthday!! @conscious_kidd @whois.issaiah is nearly a man!!

If you know him personally you know he is One of One. Humble, Confident, Kind, LOYAL AF, Does no harm but takes no shit! Observant, Hard working, Empathetic, SMART AF, A great student, DISCERNING, Excellent Friend…energy that brings warmth and light into every room and obviously he got that shit on. I LOVE YOU IZZY. I would choose to be your mother over and over again. You are THE BEST OF ME! Being your mom is my greatest accomplishment. @whois.issaiah

Shoutout to @anokephotography

Today was my day to pick up my niece and I decided to show her and my sister some of the new products we’ve been making. I’m most excited about the tonic version of my Women’s Wellness Tea and the vitamin D3!! The Women’s Daily tonic has all the same ingredients as the tea. It’s super potent and you only need 2-3 tablespoons a day. It’s sooooo easy and convenient to take. 💗

These are my 2 new favorite products right now.

💗The Women’s Daily Tonic is a daily essential. It’s full of nourishing herbs that help support all of the hormonal changes we deal with ALL THE TIME. lol.

💗Uterine Relief is an amazing formula. It helps relieve discomfort from fibroids, endometriosis, cysts and so much more. The feedback from this product has been overwhelmingly positive which means the world to us.

We’ve bundled both formulas together at a discounted price so you can experience the benefits of using them together 💗 @yourherbalhealingco

Sometimes you have to look how far you’ve come in order to appreciate where you are and where you’re going. @ogwizardry always keeps one of his original @blackroottonic bottles close by as constant reminder of the journey. We are so happy to be working together. New orders are going out in record time while old orders are being taken care of simultaneously. Teamwork makes the Dreamwork! Blackroot Tonic, Blackflower Capsules, Purge Tonic are on @yourherbalhealingco. Mija Children’s Tonic coming soon!

Thank you for all of your support. It takes a village. 💕

BLACKFLOWER CAPSULES from @blackroottonic. These babies are made with amazing ingredients like Sea Moss, Estafiate, Calendula, Blessed Thistle, Black Catnip, Damiana, Black Cohosh just to name a few! They support the endocrine system in both MEN and WOMEN! I’ve been using the consistently for the last 5 months and I love them! We put them in stock YESTERDAY and they are almost ALL GONE
-
The best part of the @yourherbalhealingco & @blackroottonic collab is that NOW for the first time ever you can get @blackroottonic products in just a few days! THIS is what teamwork can do.
-

So excited to be working with @blackroottonic. Our new @yourherbalhealingco & @blackroottonic collaboration means that NOW you can get the infamous Blackroot Tonic, Black Purge Tonic & Blackflower Capsules in 2-3 business days! If you have used @ogwizardry @blackroottonic in the past you already know it IS THE TRUTH and it has helped heal sooooo many people!
-
There is no I in TEAM. Working together is OUR greatest strength! Teamwork makes the Dreamwork!

The latest product packaging update! Some of you may even remember the VERY FIRST iteration of my products. They were literally in regular ziplock bags. I used to hand write the ingredients on to address labels 😂. I’ve learned so much along the way and most of you have been here EVERY step of the way. Through all of my ups and downs and you guys have treated me with so much GRACE and support. I love you all sooooooo much and I cannot wait to tell you all what’s happening next…..

FYI: the packaging may change but my formulas DO NOT. This is the same Parasite Cleanse you all know and love to hate 😆

I love cooking with my niece but should I be insulted that she said I was “Soooooooo Big? Anyway the recipe for my favorite Vegan Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookies is pinned in the comments.

Should we share the recipe for Vegan Biscuits?

Back in the 1700’s when I first became vegan I just knew I would NEVER have steak again. Since then I’ve seen vegan chicken, shrimp, fish, sausages, burgers etc. unfortunately for me they always contained soy, which I am terribly allergic to (it gives me eczema). Luckily, mushrooms are having their moment, especially lions mane, people make all kinds of vegan meat substitutes with them. The only problem I have with that is the fact that I can only find them OCCASIONALLY and they’re super expensive when I do. Good news is that I discovered these vegan mushroom steaks in Whole Foods a few months ago and I’m OBSESSED. They have great ingredients and good macros, if you’re into that stuff. Most importantly it really tastes and feels like steak. In fact it’s giving fillet mignon. It’s tender, juicy and the texture is spot on.

Trader Joe’s does it again, but this time it’s with beauty products. Here are a few of my all time favorites. If you know Trader Joe’s, you know they constantly update and change inventory so run don’t walk and grab these. I’ve been gatekeeping these for a while but I love y’all so I’m sharing them, don’t tell anybody😜 Have yall tried any of these? Let me know if you have a favorite that I missed! PART 2 is on my PAGE NOW @traderjoes #traderjoes #traderjoesfinds

Help me wish @whois.issaiah Izzy a happy birthday. You guys!!! Your nephew turned 16 today! He has grown into a phenomenal young man. I am so proud of him. He is a spectacular student with great grades A’s & B’s. He’s a great athlete and had an amazing season. He even scored a 39 point game in basketball. But most importantly, he’s a great person. He’s funny, loyal and has great discernment. I know most of you can remember him at just 7 years old! Look at him now!! Love you boo. @whois.issaiah

Most of you already know about my passion for herbal medicine but what you may not know is that I often rotate my supplements depending on what I feel like my body needs. Recently, I’ve experienced so many highs and lows. From the sudden loss of my sister UDY, challenges with business, traveling excessively and dealing with a ton of stress. These supplements have been life savers for me:

Parasite Cleanse - This is a tincture version of my loose leaf Parasite Cleanse that I’ve been using for years. The liquid version is my go to. I love that it’s under 3 oz. And I can travel with it and use it anytime. I just add a dropper to a small glass of water and go. It’s made with the same bitter herbs as my tea and does a great job of keeping any unwanted parasites, yeast, candida and waste out of my body, which helps to keep my digestion in tip top shape.
-
Ashwagandha - My holy grail, this works to regulate cortisol levels and reduce stress. This is essential for me with all of the stressful things going on. At one point I was so stressed that I was losing an obscene amount of hair and I’m talking about clumps and clumps of hair. This is an advanced blend of Ashwagandha that includes a mixture of KSM-66 and CO2 extracts that boost efficacy. It has helped regrow my hair and helps keep me sane.
-
Elderberry + Cayenne - y’all already know shit is constantly going around and I’m way too busy to get sick so I take Elderberry Syrup but I wanted to make sure it had a nice medical kick to it. The cayenne helps boost the efficacy and I love it.
-
Magnesium - This is essential. It helps to improve my sleep, improve muscle and nerve functioning, improves blood sugar and blood pressure and relieves tension in the body . It’s also a cofactor and assists several chemical reactions in the body.

Come with me to make herbal supplements @yourherbalhealingco with my crazy little sister @j_lanice

Heyyyy. I miss y’all. Heres a quick and easy vegan Starbucks Copycat Cheese Danish recipe!! The recipe is so easy that my son @whois.issaiah made them for us.

Here’s what you need:

1 sheet of Puff Pastry (we used @pepperidgefarm frozen puff pastry)
1 container of vegan cream cheese (we used @kitehillfoods)
1/3 cup of sugar
1 tsp of vanilla extract

I’ve been struggling to find words to express how disappointed I am in humanity recently. What is happening in Palestine RIGHT NOW is a display of the darkest side of humanity. The Israeli government (with the support of the US) has made it clear for a very long time that they do not look at the people of Palestine as humans. This is one of many attempts to commit genocide against the Palestinians. I’ve seen countless videos of bombing and countless dead children. I’m furious, disgusted and heartbroken. I feel so helpless, like there is NOTHING I can do in real time to help and that is exactly what they depend on us doing, NOTHING. BUT, I do have a voice and I’m using it, just like I do any time I see an injustice. This is not ok. I am not ok. We live in a time where we can clearly see the propaganda and lies. This isn’t about religion, or ethnicity. It’s about humanity. I have a platform and this is what social media is for. I’ve seen some pretty horrific videos of what is happening but seeing the look of terror and trauma on this poor baby’s face changed me forever. I wish I could grab him and hold him, and all I the children affected by the many war crimes and humanitarian laws that are being broken right now. I cannot watch and say nothing.

FREE PALESTINE

Hey everyone. I miss you all and I have been trying to find the strength and confidence to come back on this page and interact with you all. I recently lost one of my sisters (UDY) she was adopted into my family when I was just 14 years old and had been one of the most important people in my life since. She was my first sister to make me an aunt and one of the people that loved me the most. I miss her terribly and some days I feel completely frozen.

She went to work and had an asthma attack and they could not save her. It’s been incredibly hard for me and our family. I promise to be back on here soon with content and updates. I’m working on catching up on all my dms and emails.

Please love on your loved ones, give each other flowers and live each day to the fullest most importantly do NOT neglect your health.

Xoxo

Happy Friday Everybody I’ve got GOOD NEWS & NOT SO GOOD NEWS

The not so good news is I am shutting down the Let’s Be Vegan herb shop. Right now, we are still selling the Parasite Cleanse, Immunity Blend & Elderberry Kits. The website will still be active with tons of recipes and content.

The Good News is that my new baby @Roastedrootstea is doing great and needs all my attention and resources to succeed. If you’re new to Roasted Roots Tea, it’s tea that tastes like COFFEE. It’s caffeine free and HEALTHY. Please give my new page a follow!

If you’ve placed an order on Letsbevegan.com and received a tracking email that never got updated, please send an email inquiry through the website so the fulfillment team can take care of your order ASAP. I received a few messages and want to ensure that everyone that ordered is taken care of immediately.

My vegan Moqueca “inspired” stew. (I strongly emphasize the word inspired because I know it’s very similar but also very different from the traditional Moqueca) I’ve seen so many versions of this stew from all over the world and wanted to create my own vegan version. I tried to stick to the basics but switched things up a lot because I didn’t have all the ingredients on hand and was not going to the store. Lol. The stew is typicality made with seafood and palm oil so I opted for cauliflower and made my own version of palm oil and it was sooooo good. Let me know if you have tried the original version of this stew.

Ingredients:

• 1 Tbs of garlic scallion paste
• 4 Large tomatoes peeled and chopped
• 1/2 cup diced red bell pepper
• 1/2 cup of chopped leeks
• 1/2 cup of chopped onions
• 2 tsp chopped fresh parsley stems
• 1 russet potato peeled and chopped
• 3-4 cups of cauliflower florets
• 2 cups of full fat coconut milk
• 3/4 Tbs of extra virgin olive oil
• 3 cups of veggie broth
• 1 tsp of fresh cilantro or parsley

Seasonings:

• 1 tbs of adobo seasoning
• 1 tsp of paprika
• Pinch of saffron
• 1/2 tsp of red pepper flakes (I used Korean red chili)

Vegan friendly palm oil:

• 3 Tbs of extra virgin olive oil
• 3 Tbs of coconut oil
• 1 tsp of smoked paprika

*Also for all of you that commented on my previous reel about the pots and pans with detachable handles, you will noticed I used them in this video. They did not stain what’s so ever. I was also mindful of the heat setting and utensils. Although I used turmeric and tomatoes there was no staining whatsoever. I’ll be sure to do a full review in another few weeks after using them more.

If you’re like me and LOVE fresh garlic but hate mincing it for recipes, then this is for you. It’s a quick and easy way to prep your minced garlic. Just throw it into a food processor and keep it in a glass jar. I make several different versions, adding things like leeks, scallions and ginger but this minced GARLIC & SCALLION mixture is my favorite. I put it in almost everything I cook and use it to create intense flavor. You can prep large quantities and freeze them in jars.

Here’s what you need to make this garlic scallion paste:

• 4 scallions
• 50-60 peeled garlic cloves

First pulse the scallions in a food processor until broken down. Then add in the peeled garlic and pulse for about 20 seconds or until everything is completely broken down. Now add about a tsp of extra virgin olive oil to a small glass jar with a lid and add in the garlic scallion mixture. Cover with a lid and refrigerate for 7-10 days! You can even make several batches keep them in your freezer until you’re ready to use.

💘 Here’s a great vegan dish to make for bae for Valentine’s Day TOMORROW (in case any of you need a gentle reminder. Lol). I honestly hate zucchini but this right here tastes AMAZING. Watch all the way to the end ti see how buttery it comes out.

Ingredients

• 1 large zucchini sliced in half

The Parmesan Crust
• 1 handful of chives
• 1 tbs of parsley
• 1/2 cup of panko breadcrumbs
• 1/2 cup of vegan parmesan cheese I used @followyourheart
• 1 tsp of minced garlic
• 1/2 tsp of salt
• 1 tbs of extra virgin olive oil

The Tomato Topping
• Cup of diced tomatoes
• 1 Tbs of chopped basil
• 1/4 cup of vegan feta cheese @followyourheart
• 1-2 tbs of capers

Preheat the oven to *375

To make the crust add the panko breadcrumbs, vegan parmesan cheese, chives, parsley, garlic, salt, and oil to a foot processor and pulse until everything is combined. (If you don’t have a food processor, you can mix by hand.

First, slice the zucchini in half and score them both ways diagonally. Sprinkle them with salt and let them sit on the counter for about 20 minutes. This will draw out the water and prevent them from getting soggy. After 20 minutes, gently squeeze them to remove the water and pat them dry. Now place a large oven-safe dish over medium heat and add extra virgin oil. Carefully place the zucchini face down into the oil and cook for about 6 minutes or until the front side is golden brown. Flip your zucchini over and generously sprinkle with the parmesan mixture. Place them into the oven for an additional 8-10 minutes. Or until the tops are golden brown. Now mix the tomatoes, feta, basil, and capers and add them on top of the zucchini.

Have you seen these vegan hard boiled eggs? What do you think about products like this? Would you try these?

My new favorite way to make bok choy 🥬

• 1 Tbs of garlic scallion paste
• 1 shallot diced
• 1/2 cup of red bell pepper diced
• 1/2 cup of leeks diced
• 1 Tbs of Gochujang paste
• 2 Tbs of vegan oyster sauce (they sell it in Whole Foods)
• 3/4 cup of water
• Salt & pepper to taste
• 3 Tbs of cooking oil
• 1 bunch of baby bok choy blanched

Make the bok choy slicing them in half and wash them thoroughly under cold water and stain. Then bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add the bok choy to the boiling water for 1-2 minutes. Remove the bok choy and strain off any excess water and set aside. Now make the sauce by adding a large skillet over medium heat and add in the oil, garlic scallion paste, shallots, leeks and red bell pepper. Cook for 3-4 minutes making sure to stir occasionally. Next add in the gochujang sauce, vegan oyster sauce and water. Whisk until smooth and reduce the heat to low. Now add in the bok choy and toss until everything is coated. Add salt and pepper to taste and serve.

This is by far the easiest hack to make your own coconut milk at home. It’s much healthier and cheaper than most store bought coconut milk especially the canned versions that usually have gums and various other additives.

All you need is just 2 ingredients. Coconut Butter (make sure the only ingredient is coconut puree) and water. Just add them to a blender a viola Coconut Milk. You can use this for cereal, coffee, curries and so much more.

Ingredients Below

• 3/4 cup of coconut butter
• 2 cups of spring water

* you can play with the ration and make your milk creamier or thinner. You can even make it thicker and put it in the fridge overnight and make homemade coconut cream.

Big shoutout to @lilsipper for showing this hack. I don’t think I’ll ever buy canned coconut milk again.

I finally got my hands on the viral detachable handle pots and pans from Amazon. I am obsessed. They are non-toxic and super easy and convenient to use. The best part is that the detachable handles make it easy to stack the pots together and store in your cabinet without taking up too much room. Would you try these?

Vegan Tortellini Soup along with all the random chaos that happens in the background. I used @kitehillfoods vegan ricotta tortellini….

My favorite way to eat sweet potatoes.…..

Why was Rico in here Playing the damn piano! He climbed up there and got stuck and didn’t know what to do! Lol

VEGAN PUFF PASTRY 🥐

In case you guys missed my IG story the other day, I found out @pepperidgefarm Frozen Puff Pastry was VEGAN shocked🙌🏾😱. Now before you alkalizers come on here telling me to “read the label” I DID. Also before the FOOD POLICE come on my page just to tell me “Just because it’s vegan doesn’t mean it’s healthy” I KNOW. Sometimes people just want to enjoy fun food without judgement okaaaay. Lol.

Now that we got that out of the way let’s get into these danishes. All I did was sweeten a little @kitehillfoods vegan cream cheese and used some leftover cranberry sauce and layered them onto the Puff Pastry. Once they were finished baking them I drizzled them with a little homemade lemon glaze. I’ll post the full recipe on my blog later!

What’s your favorite item from Trader Joe’s??

I love going to Tj’s. There’s always something new! @traderjoes @traderjoeslist @blackgirlsintraderjoes

My FAVORITE VEGAN fall soup. I make is all the time!

Here are the ingredient details:

1 red bell pepper diced
1/2 small red onion diced
1 leek cleaned trimmed and diced
2 garlic cloves minced
2 cups of red lentils
2-3 thyme sprigs
1 Tbs of curry powder
1 tsp of chipotle pepper flakes
1/2-1 tsp of pink Himalayan salt
4 Tbs of extra virgin olive oil
1 48 oz. Carton of @wholefoods veggie broth
1 bunch of finely chopped kale

I always make soup and stews in my @lecreuset Dutch Oven. They’re superb 💅

#riptakeoff I’ve been the biggest Migos fan forever. They’re everything I love about being from Atlanta. I’m so angry and upset over his death. This has to stop. The culture lost a real legend! We have to do better!

Heyyyyyy! Have you been to Trader Joe’s lately? There’s so much new stuff including VEGAN BRIOCHE!! It’s soooo good. I also found a vegan egg replacer (soy free) and I decided to try it out and it worked like a charm in this vegan Pumpkin French Toast. All of the ingredients I used were from TJ’s.

I also wanted something warm and cozy so I made @roastedrootstea - Tea That Tastes Like Coffee, it’s full of natural prebiotic fiber and it’s caffeine free. The best part is it literally tastes just like coffee but doesn’t give you the jitters or bubble guts. Lol. You can drink it anytime, day or night!

I made soup. I have been so badly under the weather over the last few days. Everyone in my house is sick. It has been a struggle. The weather is transitioning and is very unpredictable. Not to mention I’ve been doing a terrible job of taking care of myself. Not drinking my tea and taking my supplements consistently. Last week Izzy came home from school with sniffles and it quickly escalated into worse symptoms and of course since we are always up under each other I quickly got sick too. To make matters worse our dog Rico ate food that made him terribly sick to his stomach. If you can imagine a 100 lb dog having accidents in the house 😳 when you’re sick. Plus he’s clingier than my actual child. So clingy that I had to make a pallet in the floor next to my bed so he can watch me obsessively while I sleep. I literally open my eyes and scream because the first thing I see is his big ass head starring at me. Lmaoooo. I know all the mothers out there feel me. We are not supposed to get sick, especially not when everyone else is sick too, it’s mayhem. Lol Let this be a reminder TAKE YOUR HERBS & SUPPLEMENTS. The season of sickness is upon us. Lol 😂 Y’all be safe.

Portobello Mushroom Fresh Rolls for dinner last night. Still not feeling my 100% well but I manage to whip these together for a late dinner last night.

We are all under the weather today in my house. Izzy, Myself & My big ass puppy Rico! I needed something easy and stress free to make for dinner. My sister @tia8254 came over last night and we minced a shit load of fresh peeled garlic in the food processor along with scallions and packed them in jars with oil (I’ll post the video in my stories). It came in so handy for tonight’s dinner. I also used my favorite marinara from @raoshomemade along with vegan Parmesan from Whole Foods. It was so good. We ate every last bite. #pastanight #pasta

Yo. It was mad chilly today so you already know what that means!! It’s sweater weather, aka soup season, time to break out the cinnamon sticks, apple cider time, hot chocolate nights, pumpkin recipe takeover, time to watch the Sanderson sisters and Zachary Binx on repeat, scary movie nights, boot season. I could literally go on forever. I don’t know what it is about fall but it just feels so freaking magical. It’s my favorite time of year.

Today is my momma @aliyahgary1 birthday. Help me wish her a Happy Birthday!

Umm so I heard the started a @maxwell challenge. The gag is my son won the challenge way back in 2017 🤷‍♀️ sidenote: my son is going to kill me when he sees this. Post & delete….

The Best Vegan Corn Fritters EVER! and I’m not just saying that because I made them. They really are perfection. @aliyahgary1 this one is for you! Lol

1-1/2 cup all purpose flour
1 Tbs baking powder
3 ears of fresh corn or 3 “lumps with knobs”
1/2 small can of diced green chilies
1 handful of fresh cilantro
3 green onions sliced
1 bag of vegan cheese (I used @violife_foods Mexican blend)
1-1/2 cup of pain vegan milk
Salt & pepper to taste!

Better late than never…..especially since my mom @aliyahgary1 favorite food of all time is corn. Lol. Seriously my mom, sister and I have been obsessed with Tariq and @recess_therapy corn song since it dropped. I know y’all are probably sick of it by now but I’m not….😭😂🌽

#itscorn #corn

Summer may be on its way out but my obsession obsession with cherry tomatoes is NOT going away anytime soon. There’s something so special about cooking tomatoes down with lots of fresh garlic and shallots! It’s literally the “chef’s kiss.” I picked up a ton of them at the farmers market yesterday along with vegan heavy cream by @silk and vegan Parmesan from Whole Foods and whipped this together in less than 25 minutes for dinner last night!!
-
It was pretty simple and easy to make. Let me know if I should post my dinner every night for recipe inspo!

Let’s talk about FIBROIDS!!

Nutrition plays a significant role when it comes to fibroids. The foods you eat can either FIGHT FIBROIDS or FEED THEM! Here are some foods that are excellent allies to help your body fight and shrink fibroids in conjunction with your treatment plan!

🥬 Kale: is high in indole-3-carbinol, which can help prevent the development of estrogen-driven tumor production, including fibroids.

Asparagus: contains phytochemical compounds such as chlorophyll and lutein that help cleanse your organs such as the liver, spleen, pancreas, and kidneys.

🌶 Mini Sweet Peppers: contains antioxidants called carotenoids that help reduce inflammation!

EVERYTHING you put into your body makes a difference. So many women that suffer from fibroids that miss out on healing because of the food choices they make or because they struggle with sticking to a healthy diet! It’s not always easy because it can mean completely changing your diet and lifestyle without ANY GUIDANCE! To make things worse, most of the time it means no longer enjoying food and EVERYBODY knows that if the food is trash, you will go back to eating what you’re used to.

I was excited to team up with @thedetoxnow to create a Recipe Book just for women suffering with fibroids. I created the END FIBROIDS Recipe Guide + Meal Plan to work alongside the END FIBROIDS program from @thedetoxnow!

The cookbook is full of recipes that help fight fibroids that actually TASTE GOOD! The book has 30 amazing recipes, meal plans and shopping list to make it easier for you! You can find the book on Thedetoxnow.com!!!!

If you or someone you love have been impacted by fibroids please share your story in the comments. It may help provide support for someone else on their healing journey!

#ENDFIBROIDSNOW #fibroids

Am I the only that has to completely clean out their fridge before going grocery shopping? I’m constantly going to the grocery store but I do a HUGE shopping haul 2 times a month and I have to clean my fridge out COMPLETELY before I go! It’s always super embarrassing because I see how ridiculous I am.

Shantelle! Like why do you have 3 containers of cherry tomatoes?

Why is there 1/4 of a cabbage?

What the freak is that juicy stuff at the bottom of the fridge?

Baby carrots?! When the hell did I buy baby carrots. I don’t even like them shits. Lol

Wait, there’s 3-1/2 pints of blueberries that are literally on there way out?

I promised myself earlier this year that I would try my best NOT to waste so much food so this morning I got up super early and cleaned out my fridge and cooked all the food that was nearly expired and this was the result!!

Is this just me? Am I the only one that buys a particular food even though it’s already in my fridge? Tell me I’m not alone!
