Yes, y'all, we are making way through some earth-friendly products and ways to live as we near Earth Day, which is next Sunday, April 22. We've already seen Green Chocolate from food blogger Sean Timberlake, using bamboo in the kitchen and on the table, and today, these are just a half-dozen foods that are considered earth-friendly. Yes, as sad as it would seem to think that the foods we eat, which come from the earth, could be bad for the planet, these are a few things that are grown sustainably, or in some way cut down on the impact that transport, packaging, etc. have on the environment.
- Edible Indoor Miniature Garden - Instead of using all that energy to go out to the market to buy a salad, grow one on your desk!
- Srina Organic Tea - Grown on a sustainable farm in Sri Lanka
- Organic Dwarf Meyer Lemon Tree - More of "grow your own!"
- Sterling Caviar - Luxury, produced sustainably
- Square One Organic Vodka - Produced organically, and with a social conscience
- Niman Ranch Beef - Local farmers who raise cattle and livestock traditionally, humanely, and sustainably
Cakes so amazing they'd be hard to cut into

Niman Ranch finishes their beef in feedlots on corn (which leads to bloat and antibiotics). The 'reason' given is because the taste of cornfed is what people want (because it's all we know).
If that's OK with people then great - just know the truth about it. 'Traditionally' is a bit of a stretch. And I don't know what their feedlots look like, but it makes me wonder about 'Humanely' too.
