Tasty, all natural toothpaste, fluoride free
I've spent quite some time looking for a decent tasting all natural, fluoride-free toothpaste (no sodium laurly sulfites either) that also left my mouth feeling clean. On the taste side, Burt's has definitely hit on target. The reason it didn't hit five stars is because, though definitely cleaning one's teeth, the "freshness factor" after brushing fades quickly. 4 1/2 stars would be my rating, could I go in between 4 and 5 - another great addition to the Burt's product line.

Sustainably made shoes that aren't half bad.
Green Toe is an offshoot line of shoes from the shoemaker Simple. The shoes themselves are made from sustainable materials, including jute, crepe, natural rubber, cork, and rubber based glues. All in all the overall natural and proclaimed sustainability of the making of the shoes gives them a huge plus in my book. Stylish enough, yet definitely natural looking, they do get comments!
In my case, they *did* have a somewhat prolonged break-in period, with some pain and/or discomfort on the top of my big toe now and then over the course of a week and a half. Also, with a laytex/cork "pedbed" they would not be my first shoe of choice if I had to stand for 8 or more hours per day.
Overall, for my lifestyle, I'm quite satisfied with these shoes. For those who require long hours of standing, hiking, walking, or need shoes to wear the day after buying them, these wouldn't work the best, but for all others these are an excellent option.
