I'm not sure. Got any suggestions? What goes with the theme? Ham? Doesn't Yves make a pareve ham-flavored soy thing?

Toast and Orange Juice.

Or schnitzel.

Toast

Isn't there a sugary cereal that looks like tiny pieces of toast?

I dunno. Some candy. I see them in bulk bins in kosher candy stores. They look like sunnyside up eggs and I think they're soft.

I guess you must mean this.



I've never seen this before.

Are food-shaped gummie candies a frum schtick? Because the first hit on google for "sunnyside up candy" was for Oh-Nuts.

Gummy candies of all types are most certainly a frum shtick. Kosher candy stores are full of them, from gummy bears to gummy worms to gummy sunnysideup eggs.
It's because candy is
1. cheap
2. easy [eg. storage; it's easy to give to kids to make them happy and you look like a hero effortlessly]
3. you can claim it's a mitzvah b/c you link candy with the sweetness of torah.

Candy is the perfect storm for the torah true which is why there's so much of it in shuls, schools, and homes.

Does that make me not Torah-True?

I do bake a lot of homemade goodies though--I'm sure that's on an even higher madreiga.

We don't judge madreigas. It's a different madreiga. Anyway, what matters isn't your current madreiga, but whether you are climbing or stagnant [or chas veshalom falling, rachmana litzlan].
In the future, please worry about yourself, and not yourself relative to others.

The higher madreiga would be to bake with only healthy ingredients, which I aspire to do, but I'm not there yet.

As long as your realize you only have to aspire to be like R. Zushyah of Hanipoli, and not like Moshe Rabbeinu. Or something like that. Maybe I missed the point of that vort.

What about, "in the place where you desire to be, that's where you are," or something like that?

Thanks. I told my wife about the toast cereal and she's willing to entertain the idea.
but we still need 20 egg cartons, which is a problem. because we need the clear plastic ones [like the omega 3 eggs come in], not the cardboard ones.

Why?

It looks nicer and cleaner, and you can see the plastic eggs inside, and a paper insert will be visible. it's just a cleaner look.

(well, my wife called neighbors and friends and sent emails out, but everyone seems to use those cardboard ones)

I use the same ones as you do, but I don't have enough of them for you.

[agent220]

Buy 30 of them and transfer the eggs to the cardboard ones your neighbors have.
