But the food was all vegan tofu-y, so stuff you wouldn't normally buy during a normal shop. Unusual, really. Very low in calories but they had me drinking these green smoothies all the time so I was always full. But the logistics of getting it delivered every day...such a pain. I had it delivered to work every morning which meant I starved until 10 or 11 am when my breakfast finally arrived! Green fairy? Green goddess fairy?
