Firebrand Croissant with blackberries: Available at Asha Tea House in Berkeley, this flaky croissant has a cream-cheese spread and fresh blackberries. I found it to be surprisingly tasty, even at the end of the day after it’s likely been sitting out for a while. The cheese spread was slightly seasoned so the pastry overall wasn’t too sweet. Glad to know that Asha has quality food options on top of their teas! 4.0/5.0

Tilamook Oregon Marionberry strained yogurt: This strained yogurt ("farmstyle Greek") is impressively thick and loaded with 13g of protein. As a result, it's a filling breakfast that can carry you through to lunch. Tillymook is an Oregon-based company, and while Marionberry may seem like a marketing gimmick to make blackberries appear more appealing, it does go along well with their Oregon story. The fruit filling is sweet but appropriately so; the mild yogurt is more creamy than tart. 3.5/5.0
