The Kefir Keeper

I am not a natural salesperson. I do not have the face for it (my oldest daughter says it is called RBF.) However, when I love something, I can not help but talk about it in an animated way. When I do not like something, I try to remember what grandmother told me "never say anything you would not want printed on the front page of the newspaper." I tell you this to say, I have to taste the stuff I sell or I can not sell it. Every batch of cheese is slightly (or greatly) different, every bottling of milk, especially the chocolate, which requires cooking the chocolate and adding the sugar has the potential to taste differently than the last.

I am learning so much about foods that I used to just consider as ingredients. Kefir is a beverage/food that never crossed my frame of reference until a couple of years ago when my youngest daughter needed it for her gut. I did not try it at that time, but she referred to it as "drinkable yogurt." I had eliminated dairy from my diet at that time to see if my inflammation problem would go away (that is a story for another day) so I had no interest in tasting the kefir. I tasted it last week, and it tastes like drinkable yogurt. The following article gives more information and has gotten me more interested in using the product to which I have access.
