Great on the skin, bad on the hazard rating. In my attempts to find a paraben-free facial moisturizer with sunscreen, I have looked everywhere. They are hard to find, but essential for those of us with easily-burnt skin that is also sensitive to regular sunscreen. I finally found what I thought to be a great solution in this Almond Aloe...

Really good, really intense. This is definitely a special yogurt. It has that signature "goaty" flavor of goat cheese and milk, and I found that the sweeteners (maple syrup and vanilla extract) were a good balance for the sour taste. I probably would not eat this for breakfast, as it is really decadent, but I could see having...

Really creamy nonfat yogurt. This yogurt is a delicious nonfat option. I love whole milk yogurt too, and this really does compare! The texture, the flavor, the organic, local goodness- what more could you ask for? This really does stack up against whole milk yogurts.

Okay Granola This low-fat granola is locally made in San Rafael, and uses non-GMO, organic oats and other ingredients. The dried raspberries give it a fruity zing, but the granola itself is a little too tough to chew and not a sweet as I would like. Goes well with sweetened yogurt!

Really is D'lish This granola has a great nutty flavor and is sweet and salty- perfect for an afternoon snack. Its made locally in SF and it really is an outstanding product. My only caveat is that it is super high in fat, so I would not eat it every morning.

The perfect all-pleasing cheese. This nettle-wrapped cow's milk cheese is flavorful without being overwhelming. The texture was perfectly creamy and the nettle rind added a great mellow note. I loved the mild sweetness of the cheese.

Lookin' sharp. This raw milk cheddar has a great flavor. I am a cheddar lover, and this was really very sharp without being crumbly or dry at all. I will definitely get this organic cheese again.

Cheese companions. Water crackers might just be the most boring of the cracker family, but they make a great surface on which to enjoy your favorite organic cheeses! These organic crackers were crispy and light and great for a hors d'oeuvre platter.

Rosemary Goodness These little crunchy crackers have a great rosemary flavor that works well with cheeses or on their own. They are organic too!

The perfect chocolate? This dark chocolate has a hint of organic milk in it, that makes for a creamy smooth texture that milk chocolate enthusiasts love and dark chocolate enthusiasts never get to experience. I definitely recommend this for all chocolate lovers! The cocoa is fairly traded from Bolivia as well, so you...
