Simple Truth Products

 I am LOVING Kroger's new line, Simple Truth. These items are "Free From 101" artificial ingredients and preservatives and are either all natural and/or organic. The have items available in almost every aisle throughout the store with simple, clean packaging that is easy to read.

So far, I have tried the Fat Free Milk, Almond Milk, Eggs, Veggie Sticks & Chips, Frozen Strawberries & Corn, Canned Chick Peas & Northern Beans, Cucumber Melon Natural Soda, Tomato Basil Pasta Sauce and Peanut Butter Extreme Protein Bar. I was happy with each of these products and will continue to purchase these and try out others! 

I love being able to walk into a store like Kroger knowing that I can get great customer service along with a abundant, affordable & healthy product line.

Green Mountain Coffee

In 2000, Green Mountain Coffee Roasters, Inc. became one of the first roasters in the U.S. to offer Fair Trade Certified™ coffees. And they are now the largest purchaser of Fair Trade Certified™ coffee in the world, purchasing more than 38 million pounds in 2011 alone.

Who benefits from Fair Trade Certified™ coffee?

Farmers

Fair Trade helps ensure that farmers get a fair price for their beans. It also improves working conditions, and supports development in farming communities with projects resulting in new schools, roads, health clinics and safer drinker water.

You

All of the above enables farmers to invest in better quality coffee. So while Fair Trade communities enjoy a better quality of life, you enjoy a better quality cup. It's coffee that tastes good and does good too.

Everyone

The benefits go beyond just dollars and cents. Fair Trade growing practices help protect the environment too. Sometimes good coffee really does make the world go 'round.

Chattanooga

Had a good time in Chattanooga celebrating our 6 year anniversary. It would have been great to take along E since it is soooo family oriented. Once she is older, we will definitely go back. Had a good dinner at Table 2. Not nearly as good as Atlanta restaurants, but great for that area. Had the shrimp and grits which was tasty. The Terminal Brewhouse was REALLY good and would recommend that to anyone who loves beer. Also, Mojo Burrito in St. Elmo was awesome. The keylime chicken was yum. Went to Lookout Mtn on a whim and it was cool enough for a tourist trap. All in all, a good trip, but no need to go back anytime soon.
