Ruby recommends: Organic Bulk Dried Jaq Fruit:             

“It has a really interesting taste, it tastes almost caramel-y to me, like a cross between mango and banana.  It’s not too sweet.  It’s just such a good snack.  I don’t think I have a reason – I just really like it!  It’s kind of chewy, but not too chewy.  I feel like a lot of dried fruit gets stuck in your teeth because it’s too chewy.”

Rakhi Recommends: Sunrise Energy Bites

“They’re a very good breakfast, they’re also a snack… no, I don’t have them for dinner — but you can definitely have them for a dessert!   You can compare them to oatmeal raisin cookies, but not as sweet.  Whole grains and fruit, filling, good taste, doesn’t cost too much — that’s all.”

Ayate Washcloths from 100% Agave Fiber

Colleen S. | Customer Service & Bodycare:  Your search for baby-smooth skin is over!  This is hands-down the BEST exfoliating product I’ve ever used.  It’s natural, it doesn’t have any plastic, anywhere in it.  It’s the right amount of roughness to invigorate, without scratching.

Les Moulins Mahjoub Tibar Sauce

Adam S | Co-Owner.  Exotic enough to tantalize your taste buds, with harissa, capers, and North African spices. Normal “tomato sauce enough” you can still put it on spaghetti.  I also like to dump it over steamed broccoli.  Or I use it as a base for pizza, with sharp cheddar & Moroccan oil-cured black olives.

David A. | Assistant Manager.  I tend to Choc-o-lot about this because it’s NUT your average chocolate!  Raw and delicious.  Hard to argue with that logic.

MARY K | SUPPLEMENTS DEPARTMENT: “I tend to be a-stragal(us)er with colds and flues, but I zinc that this keeps them away!”  Wellness is loaded with vitamins and minerals and herbs that pack a punch in the short term.  Astragalus builds my immunity in the long term.  These ones really work!

Three Twins Ice Cream Sundae Cones | Alexander B.

“I like this because there is ice cream and chocolate all the way to the bottom, and the cone doesn’t have a hole, so it doesn’t drip down your shirt!”
