Review of Natural Drain Cleaner by Drainbo

4 star rating Review of Natural Drain Cleaner 2 comments | November 18, 2008 | Posted in Cleaning & Laundry

Eliminates drain flies I had been noticing a slow but steady stream of little black flying insects in my home, and from some online research was able to discern that they were called drain flies. They lay eggs in the crud inside drains. Killing these dumb (slow reflexed ;) bugs one at a time didn't seem to do the trick...

Review of Noodle Bowls by Annie Chun's

4 star rating Review of Noodle Bowls 3 comments | March 18, 2008 | Posted in Food & Grocery

Healthy, US-made instant lunch in a green container Annie Chun's may well be the first company to package convenience foods in compostable cornstarch bowls, instead of plastic. They're made just north of San Francisco, so as an SF-dweller I can feel good about eating this local product, as opposed to most similar dishes that are made in Thailand...

Review of B-5 Design Gel by Aubrey Organics

5 star rating Review of B-5 Design Gel March 18, 2008 | Posted in Hair Care

Natural hair gel with great hold I found this product on my search for a hair gel with minimal chemical ingredients, particularly nothing ending in -paraben or -cone. It is commonly sold in health food stores. I used to alternate between several hair styling products, but when I got this one it became my new favorite. It does a...

Review of ChicoBag by The ChicoBag Company

4 star rating Review of ChicoBag March 17, 2008 | Posted in Jewelry & Accessories

Holds up in the wash I have used my chico bag a few times. They are great because they pack up into a teeny little packet to carry along with you, and then when you need to wash them they don't wrinkle up like some cheap cotton bags do. I am docking them one star for being made of nylon, not as ecofriendly as some other...

Review of Laundry Detergent by Mrs. Meyer's Clean Day

3 star rating Review of Laundry Detergent March 17, 2008 | Posted in Cleaning & Laundry

Watch out for allergies I used their clothes detergent and was pretty unhappy when I started itching! I've never had this problem before. If you have any allergies, I suggest you don't use their products- at least the laundry detergent.
Since I haven't used their other products I didn't want to give too low a rating...

Review of Organic Raw Kombucha by GT'S Kombucha

1 star rating Review of Organic Raw Kombucha 12 comments | March 17, 2008 | Posted in Tasty Drinks

Mushrooms=drugs Kombucha is made of mushrooms, folks. Funny mushrooms. When I drank half a bottle of this stuff I was left unable to physically focus on a point for more than a second or 2, and I was at work. Not a good combo. This lasted for a couple of hours. When I wrote the company they had ZERO compassion for...
