For those of you who don't know, this is a spread product made in Eugene, OR by a bunch of hippie chefs and such. They got their start at the Oregon Country Fair. I'm from the west coast, specifically mostly Oregon, and I miss the hell out of some Toby's! (From what I remember, the "lite" versions in the tubs were made vegan, with eggless mayo?) These days I live in TN, and they don't ship anywhere close to here, so I'm SOL. I was wondering if any of you know a way to fix it homemade? My favorite was always the "Lite n spicy" version - like a veg jalepeno egg salad! I'm really wishing for it right now, so any lead y'all can provide would be appreciated!
