I would like to hear more about your other food changes! I saw your comment on my homemade ketchup blog, and thought you might like to try this fermented ketchup recipe: http://www.homemademommy.net/2011/12/fermented-ketchup.html. I had pinned it a while ago but decided to try a non-fermented one first. Alex asked for the "regular" ketchup the first time we tried it, but we've eaten it 2 other times and he hasn't said a word about the difference, other then "more ketchup please!" kyleann33https://www.blogger.com/profile/13612125492778556881noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5956538942392497830.post-58206844474845147272013-05-18T12:49:12.554-04:002013-05-18T12:49:12.554-04:00Zoe, must be nice!

I love kefir, however, if you don't like the taste of it for drinking, consider keeping it around as a baking staple.Margohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16345165456341197559noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5956538942392497830.post-42826886541286439452013-05-17T20:13:24.233-04:002013-05-17T20:13:24.233-04:00Have not had kefir.

Some people find milk to be a trigger for that, but others find it soothing (I am one of those).<br /><br />As Rebecca said, maybe repeated exposure is the key to enjoying it. I remember the first time I tried soy yogurt - not so good. But I came to love it.jenny_ohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15475480579733466963noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5956538942392497830.post-37786250900085909852013-05-17T11:03:40.576-04:002013-05-17T11:03:40.576-04:00I keep seeing this pop up and keep meaning to try ...I keep seeing this pop up and keep meaning to try some.

Interesting.<br /><br />I've tried it. Bought grains online and fermented our raw milk. HATED the stuff. Like, could hardly even gag down smoothies made with it. I like yogurt so it's not like I don't have a taste for that sort of thing. Would the raw milk have made it extra strong or something? What milk do you use?
