Oh, and indeed it is!I found these little babies by Sunergia Soyfoods in my boyfriend's fridge, and they're rocking my no longer bland tofu world. Don't come a knockin'. You get yourself to a market.
I tofu-ed myself out many years ago. I would rather eat tempeh or seitan almost any day, but, by golly, I could eat these uncooked as a snack. Only freaks can say that about ordinary tofu.
The secret is that they integrate ingredients like mushrooms and peanuts INTO the tofu and then give it a marinade. Try marinading plain tofu for hours and it never really seems to soak up enough flavor. I've tried other flavored tofu, but this is much better. Sunergia Soyfoods actually put the flavor in there for you. (See the hunks in the picture.)
They have ten different flavors of tofu. My favorite is the peanut and ginger tofu used in pad Thai.
Their package says that if you contact them, they'll give you a $1 off two packages coupon. Try it.

damn. somebody's been reading the small print. I've seen some dessert tofu in my grocer's fridge recently and it looks kind of scary. Flavors like Peach Mango and Caramel. Caramel? Check out the flavors at Pete's Tofu Flavors.
Next time I'm there I'm going to have to get one just to try. Sounds suspicious to me, but you never know.
Matty - I don't even need glasses, either, and on holidays I have x-ray vision!
I haven't touched sweet flavored tofu. Sounds suspicious, but then chocolate and peanut butter tofu pie is yummy. Just don't put the caramel tofu in your spaghetti. Doh.
