  1. Cherries and pineapple are SO totally Paleo! :)

  2. Can you figure out how to make a Paleo version of this? Would it just be fruit salad with pineapple and cherries? Might still be good!

  3. To make it dairy-free I use Tofutti Better Than Cream Cheese and SoyaToo Soy Whipped Topping. They make a rice whipped topping too, but the soy one has a better consistency I think. Anyway, it comes in a spray can, not a tub like Cool Whip. Just FYI. :)
