Comments for Where Else Organic? http://sayingthankyou.wordpress.com This BLOG started as a “thank you” to Capers Community Market for 23 years of keeping us fed, keeping us wise, and keeping us together: our ORGANIC food community. Now that Capers is gone: Where else ORGANIC? Where else can we find ORGANIC FOOD and other organic products? Not just LOCAL organic, but WORLDWIDE? Watch this space for CLUES!

]]> Comment on Organic Fair Trade Vodka? by Jeff http://sayingthankyou.wordpress.com/2008/04/20/organic-fair-trade-vodka/#comment-348 Jeff Mon, 08 Jun 2009 09:11:39 +0000 http://sayingthankyou.wordpress.com/?p=513#comment-348 I agree. Ecological is not organic, organic is not fair trade, fair trade is not organic, organic is not ecological. It all belongs to sustainable development. It is important not to be confused and abused by marketing tools. I actually found the first FAIR TRADE CERTIFIED Vodka produced by some french people. It is called FAIR. I tasted it in Paris last week. It is a partnership between a coop in South America and distillers in France. It tastes amazing as they use a rare new cereal from the altiplano which I have not remembered the name. The fact is they retribute fairly the farmers out there. Another excellent ORGANIC CERTIFIED Vodka made from swedish organic certified wheat is GREEN. The website is www.puregreenvodka.com and it is quite tasty as well but you can't find it out of Sweden.

I went there a few times, each time thinking up an excuse to give them one more chance. I even emailed the owner Hello AT Babyeats.com never replied or offered an explanation. The facility was dirty; bits of food everywhere, toys scattered all around. The food, don't get me started, microwaved. Hard as a rock. The washrooms were dirty with bits of paper towel scattered all over the floor. Felt humiliated bringing my mommy friends there. Babyeats lost another customer!!!! Totally agree with the previous posters.

All Organic! by BLOG Moderator http://sayingthankyou.wordpress.com/2009/05/03/google-this-all-organic/#comment-344 BLOG Moderator Sun, 10 May 2009 22:11:02 +0000 http://sayingthankyou.wordpress.com/?p=1635#comment-344 Gordon and family-- I'm glad you're enjoying the Capers cum "everything organic" blog. Some of the muffin recipes are in fact in that long-ago-published recipe book (To Love & Feed People: wholefoods baking and natural desserts by JoAnn Issenman). WholeFoods (the US conglomerate that bought out Capers) probably now owns rights to any re-publish of the book, but it's unlikely WholeFoods would ever celebrate Capers. WF has its own brand. (At the end of April shut down yet another Capers Market on Cambie Street). A few of us have searched successfully online for used copies of the recipe book (those are still available). I bought mine from Amazon Books. Just Google "used bookstores." You're sure to find a copy. It's a charming--innocence before multinationals in the food industry--book, with drawings as well as recipes. Worth a search for sure. Good luck. Gordon and family–
