We all know that herbal tea is good for you but sometimes they can taste rather nasty. Often herbal teas can be bitter (like green tea if it's left to steep too long) or very bland with not much taste at all. Some herbal teas have a peculiar taste.

If you are a sweet food addict, well don’t worry, you’re not alone. In fact we are all born with the genetic programming for sweet things, it’s just that some of us get trained out of it, and some us don’t (such as yours truly!).Paula Goodyer, a food writer for SMH, has written an article outlining the factors that influence the severity of our sweet food cravings, and yes it’s another t
Satisfy your sweet tooth and save on calories with these cute accessories by a Japanese owned company called Q-Pot.

This fantastic little secret from the South Beach Diet will cut down on your calorie intake and satisfy your need for something yummy. Store the Cool Whip in [...]
Yes, another in our series of free puppy toys. This time it’s an empty ice cream carton. It proved to be a great shape for Bernard to really get his teeth into.
Sadly, the best pose Bernard did with the whole of his snout in the carton wasn’t captured for posterity this time, but I’m sure [...]

Corporate Responsibility Mondays continue as we discuss your ever so addictive and greedy sweet tooth. As we’ve done before, Josh will be discussing a corporation whose history is nothing to be proud of, and I’ll be talking about a company that is worth supporting. Sort of like Good cop, Bad cop. So be sure to check out Josh’s post about a not so equal food company.
I was first introduced to Equal Exchange when our Food Not Bombs group received a donation of a couple boxes of their dark chocolate candy bars. The label told a wonderful story of ethical and fair consumerism. Like Maggie’s last week, they run as a co-op:
