1. Any yogurt marketed for kids/babies. I don't eat yogurt but Masher and EG do, and they love plain yogurt. There's no reason to put 20-some grams of sugar into a little kid's yogurt, or into a little kid. Anyone who works at Horizon Dairy in Marketing should babysit for me after giving EG a container of that stuff.
2. Retractable leashes: This might have been a good idea when it first came out and people bought them for microdogs. I don't think it was intended for dogs that aren't trained to walk nicely on a loose lead. I sympathize with people whose dogs pull on the lead because mine was nearly impossible to train out of it. What the retractable leash does is give them 16 feet to build up more momentum when they pull on the lead, making the force on your rotator cuff that much greater. And if they're out of control at 6 feet, they're both out of control and out of reach at 16 feet. Plus they tend to get tangled in other leashes when sniffing other dogs' butts and going in a circle.

Products I Like
1. Sunshine Burger: http://www.sunshineburger.com/ these have only a few simple ingredients. They are vegan and gluten-free (although I have nothing against gluten). I like the texture and the unique taste; it's not one of those imitation meats, but a veggie patty, so it's not really for converts looking for a meat substitute. EG doesn't like them though. He spit out the one he tried.
2. Veganaisse: taste close enough to mayo, and the texture is very similar. I've tried other fake mayo and the texture wasn't velvety and it gagged me.
3. Vegan Gourmet "cheese" good texture, and I like the white ones (mozzarella and monterey jack). It melts and you can make a grilled "cheese" with it.
4. Boo Bars: http://boobars.com/ very simple fruit and nut bars with no ingredients you can't pronounce. If you're a vegan who likes chocolate (I'm not, so I didn't try that flavor), the ones with cocoa are also vegan. I guess I'm not crazy about the name only because without a hyphen in the domain I just see "boob." Not that there's anything wrong with that, it just makes me think it's breastfeeding forum or something instead of a snack food.
