Jess Sayin sez I posted my tapioca pudding recepie yesterday. Cozy
Shack is okay in a pinch and if in a hurry but in no way compares to
homemade; with real tapioca, fresh whole milk, fresh whole eggs, real
vanilla, real sugar, and full measure of ingredients with no fillers.
Cozy Shack likely uses sego palm starch rather than real tapioca,
powdered eggs, powdered milk, vanilla flavoring, artificial sweetener,
plus stabilizers/chems, and Cozy Shack is old when you buy it from the
refrigerator case, and expensive for that wee little bit in a teensy
plastic cup that also polutes. It's very easy to make the real deal,
keeps well in your home fridge and can even be frozen in portions like
ice cream.
