Big discovery today! Ran over to Trader Joe's for the best peanut butter in the state and saw a pkg. of ground steak buffalo patties. Would you believe that each one in the pkg. of 4 has 43g of protein?? EACH ONE! Now, no doubt can't eat a whole one but figure it out...........this is awesome for us.

Wahoo

Thanks for the heads-up! Bison--or buffalo---is real lean meat!

Sue,,,,,,,,,,,,,,and don't you think that by comparison,,beef is so strong flavored. Where buffalo/bison is much more mild. I'm not a big fan of beef and was so happy to find this product.

Hi Sharon aka/Linda Anne's mom! I'm catching up on posts here, and gotta take your buffalo suggestion!--I LOVE Buffalo and venison! I've been eating extra-lean ground beef, although FINALLY discovered the Trader Joe's in St Louis Park, so am on my way now to check out that fabulous-sounding store! Hey, I'm thisclose to two years out, and haven't even met Linda Anne! Gotta meet both of you one of these days--I work every other weekend, and this is my weekend to work, and I'm so sorry not being able to hit the Stillwater group Saturday--one of these weekends, even though we're headed into summer, I will get to the Eagan one and meet all you southeastern subs people! Hugs galore, Patti

Patti.....................I love/prefer bison also. Beef is so raggedy in my stomach. And how does one discount that much protein??

Trader Joe's is great. And like I said, their peanut butter is better than REAL peanut b. For me anyway.

Eagan Coffee won't be for 2 weeks from this Saturday now.

Take care and let me know what you think re: buffalo

Hey Sharon! Thank you SO MUCH for mentioning the buffalo/bison--I actually stocked up on both! Also stocked up on Edamame, which til now I've gotten at Cub, but love it! Trader Joe's is my new "I luv my...." However, I passed on the peanut butter, as I stay away from bread and crackers. Actually should get it next time and try it with apple or celery for a snack. Thanks again for your post, as I've found one healthy 'addiction!' Hugs galore, Patti
