Have you finally had enough of the average slop which is crushed into dust and crammed into the nation’s teabags?

It’s about time that tea drinkers in Canada had access to the great flavour that PURE whole leaf tea delivers.

Canadians drink almost 9 billion cups of tea each year, thats 270 cups for each Canadian, but there is a whole world of teas out there that are just not getting the attention they deserve.

Avoid genetically engineered food

by avoiding the four key GE ingredients: corn, soy, canola, and cotton, I am working to eliminate eating genetically engineered food from my diet. Be aware that corn has many derivatives: glucose/fructose, colouring, natural and artificial flavourings, corn syrup and many others. Also be aware that vegetable oil and margarine are made from all four of the key ingredients to watch out for.

Taking the Bite Out of Organic Food Costs

Adapted from an article by Kathryn Benedicto, online activist, and thrifty consumer.

It is no secret that organic products have a reputation for being more costly. In fact, some people use the price premium to justify branding organic consumers as elitist, a charge that's even been leveled in the pages of the Sierra Club magazine. To those of us who are simply trying to make healthier choices about what goes into our bodies, our air, our soil, and our water, that's a real shame. What we should all realize is that there are ways for everyday people to trim their organic grocery bill and rein it in from being a budget-buster to something that's more within reach.
