Here's
To Your Health!
Understandably
there are many companies to provide perfectly fine gift baskets. If
you are looking for something organic in nature, you are a little hard-pressed
to come up with many selections. If you are buying for someone with
a health concern, well, the process is just becoming a little more complicated.
I ran into a situation a few times when I tried to make gift purchases
for distant relatives in the hospital. My very southern grandfather
was recuperating after by-pass surgery (just say no to sausage biscuits!)
and I was looking for healthy snacks to send him to supplement his oh-so-tasty
hospital grub. I was a woman on a mission
Sadly, I was unable to locate someone to prepare a heart-healthy organic
care package. Being the creative type, I thought Id just whip
something up myself. My business idea was born!
Since that time, I have extolled the virtues of soy milk and veggie
burgers to all of my southern soul-food, meat-eating relatives. I am
happy to report that some of them have incorporated more natural, organic
and vegetarian selections in their diets. Its a bit more difficult
to persuade them to eliminate refined sugars and hydrogenated oils from
their kitchens however
so we are still working on those ones!
