Bottled Water

The Delivery: Green Planet bottled water
Staff Pick: The water

The DL: It’s great to know that there is now bottled water made from bioplastic available, in case we’re ever stuck without our reusable water bottles—we know we’ll get our recommended eight glasses daily from somewhere! In addition to consuming plenty of water, there are plenty of other foods we should be increasing our consumption of, such as these five. So whip up some Taro Dumplings with a side of Cranberry Sauce and know you’re treating your body well.

Alternative Tootpaste

The Date: Monday, August 29
The Delivery: Toothy Tabs (and some eco-friendly toothbrushes!) from Lush Cosmetics 
Staff Pick: The Toothy Tabs!

The DL: We here at the VNHQ love getting deliveries of chocolate, cookbooks, and chips, but perhaps even more than those three Cs, we love a new vegan product unlike anything we've ever C-een (get it?). Enter: Toothy Tabs. The folks at Lush are aiming to reduce the ecological impact of toothpaste tubes and dispensers with these tabs. Pop in your mouth, brush as normal, and keep some of the one billion toothpaste tubes that end up in landfills annually out. We are so intrigued we might whip some out some of these Toothy Tabs right now. After all, we did just have lunch.
