You’ll always find a bottle of Fiji Organic Ginger Syrup by The Ginger People in my fridge, for good reason — versatility!

It’s a creative alternative to traditional breakfast syrup and is delicious poured over stacks of pancakes, waffles, French toast or a hot bowl of oatmeal porridge.

And it’s a perfect substitute for cocktail recipes calling for simple syrup, salad dressing requiring honey, or as a sweetener for tea or coffee.

Humble Potato Chips

Humble Potato Chips, certified organic, are cooked with their skins on — tastier and zero waste. They’re not batch cooked; rather, they’re cooked in the traditional way, on a conveyor belt, using a light, high-oleic, organic sunflower oil. And now, this sustainable Canadian brand sells the crispy chips in certified plastic-free, compostable bags.
