Cool Hunting
You have to get a little excited knowing that the organic food marketplace is getting big enough and consumers informed enough that a store like Appellation Wine & Spirits can have a successful business. This wine and spirits shop is unremarkable on first glance—sparse, low key—but walking inside and browsing through their products you soon start to realize that the descriptions of the wines and spirits include words like organic, biodynamic, natural, family grown...then you realize that all of the descriptions include these words. You can pick up some interesting and well-priced selections from around the world and support the farmers/growers/vintners who believe in sustainable, organic and biodynamic viticulture. Cheers to that.
You can also shop Appellation Wine & Spirits online.

It was then that she dropped the bomb on us: she's started to make ketchup. And just like her jam isn't just jam, her ketchup isn't just ketchup. Made from Early...
With everybody suddenly becoming allergic to everything, all kinds of new food alternatives are popping up. The latest we've sampled is a line of organic coconut milk-based "ice creams" and "yogurts" from Turtle Mountain.
