The masters of the Chicago pie have been using Teese cheese as well as Upton’s amazing seitan meat substitutes to wow local and traveling vegans alike with pizza perfection we all thought we’d never have again.

They are also offering our Temptation chocolate chip cookie dough ice cream for those with self-control for the pizza portion of the night and room for dessert.

The best news is, they deliver! And they are open LATE! Kitchen closes at 1:30am people. 1-30-A-M.

Check ‘em out on GrubHub or stop by the spot to experience the friendly local bar flavor we at CSD love about this place.

We’ll be there selling cones of Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough, Fair Trade Chocolate, Vanilla and Mint Chocolate Chip. For the gluten-free folks we’ll have cups on hand as well.

We’re easy to find. Our signage says “Temptation Frozen Desserts” and we have the handsomest dudes and ladies of any booth there (we guarantee this). Our booth is located on the North side of the event in the food court. Here’s an approximation of where we’re at (click the map to see the full version where it’s a bit clearer)…

We hope to see you there! We’ll have buttons to give away as well. Maybe we’ll bring some Dandies for the ride!

If we recall correctly there are other vegan options but you gotta dig deep. Lollapalooza isn’t the most vegan food-friendly environment outside of us but seriously… do you need more than our cream?

• Whole Foods Midwest – all locations are carrying Dandies retail! They can usually be found in the aisle with the baking supplies (flours, cake mixes, etc).
• Whole Foods Midwest – all locations are carrying Teese retail. All four flavors are present (Mozzarella, Cheddar, Nacho & Cheddar sauce). These can all be found in the refrigerated section near the Tofu and other soy-based cheeses.
• Whole Foods Midwest – if a location has a prepared foods counter with a pizza oven they carry Teese to go on their pizzas. Highlights are Wednesdays where they have $8.99 pizza night!
• New York / New Jersey Whole Foods – many locations are carrying Dandies now! Please check the “Where To Buy” section at the Dandies website for the up-to-date list on this.
• Whole Foods Chicago – Lincoln Park – A few unique things are going on here. There’s an amazingly huge food court at this new monstrous Whole Foods. The diner spot in here is now making milkshakes with Temptation Vegan Ice Cream! The taqueria will also put Teese on their offerings on request. They don’t advertise it but if you ask they will serve it up for you.
• Whole Foods Chicago – South Loop – This location also carries Temptation Vegan Ice Cream for milk shakes! It’s also one of the few locations in the city of Chicago that carries our ice cream in pints (in the frozen section). The South Loop location also has vegan chili cheese dogs with Teese Cheddar!
• Whole Foods Chicago – Sauganash – This location is one of the others in Chicago that carries Temptation pints.

For our booth at this years Pitchfork Music Festival we made these.

A lot of you asked where you can buy one. For now these are staff only shirts but if they do become available we’ll definitely post about it! A little history on these shirts. Most of us at CSD are rooted in the 90s hardcore scene (particularly from the Straight Edge scene). There’s this great Midwest hardcore label Catalyst Records that made these awesome shirts that said “It’s OK Not To Drink” shirts. Catalyst has always been very close to Chicago Soydairy so we were very honored that the allowed us to make these shirts.

Next is a T-shirt we will be selling. GB X CSD shirts. Keeping with the tradition of honoring our hardcore roots we made a design for our Dandies Vegan Marshmallows based on a classic Gorilla Biscuits shirt. These will be for sale sometime in the next month.

Buttons buttons and buttons! We have never made buttons. Can you believe it? Everyone has buttons. Everyone. So we finally jumped on the bandwagon and made three different designs. Stop by our booth at Lollapalooza and we’ll give you one! Beyond giving them out at events and stuff we have not yet ironed out our plans for selling these. I’ll keep you posted.

P.S. Cell phone pic = sometimes blurry. Sorry!

Finally we have one more T-Shirt that we’re very proud to present. I’ll let it speak for itself.

We can’t wait to have these for sale! I’ll keep you all posted when the day comes.

In the meantime please stop by our booth if you’re attending Lollapalooza in Chicago next weekend and say hi, pick up some Temptation Vegan Ice Cream cones and grab a button!

If you want more up-to-the-minute info from Chicago Soydairy don’t forget to follow us on the Twitter! We like to kick it there in 140 characters or less.

Our vegan soft serve is beginning to pick up steam and more and more places are carrying it. We recently completed an up-to-date list of all places carrying so please keep checking back to see if it’s available in your area.

If you have a local ice cream shop, froyo (frozen yogurt – watch The Gilmore Girls sometime) shop or anywhere with a soft serve machine please let them know about our product and tell them you’re interested. We’d love to get it out there more!
