Qualities

Casein Free ▸
x
Contains no casein, potentially allergenic proteins found in milk and dairy foods as well as products containing casein-based binders, emulsifiers, or stabilizers.
Did you know?
Casein is a protein found in milk. It shows up in various products from cheese to plastic to paint.
Casein is one of two proteins found in cow’s milk that can trigger an allergy. Some people are allergic to it, others are allergic to whey. Still others are allergic to both.
Vegans looking for cosmetics read labels to avoid casein, which is decidedly not vegan.

Made in the USA ▸
x
The item has been produced or manufactured in the United States.
Did you know?
U.S. labor tends to be more expensive than labor elsewhere, so companies have outsourced their work in droves.
The outsourcing of work means there are less manufacturing facilities stateside than there once were.
Made in the USA has therefore become a point of pride, and not only in the auto industry.
Labor conditions overseas—depending on the country—are often less safe than they are here in the USA, putting workers at risk. Many workers outside the U.S. aren’t paid living wages. Some countries present both slave and child labor concerns.

Dairy Free ▸
x
Did you know?
There are many reasons people choose to eliminate dairy from their diets, including lactose intolerance. An estimated 75 percent of the world is lactose intolerant.
Dairy is often considered the only way to get sufficient calcium, but this isn’t the case. There are many non-dairy sources of calcium, including dark leafy green vegetables, seafood, certain nuts, and some beans.
Some sources claim that countries with the lowest dairy intake have the lowest rates of osteoporosis rates.

Organic ▸
x
Products produced fully or primarily without employment of chemically formulated fertilizers, growth stimulants, antibiotics, or pesticides. Better for the planet? Yup. Better for you? You bet.
|
|
Dye and Color-Additive Free ▸
x
No synthetic dyes, chemical food coloring, or other artificial colorants. Any color apparent in the product is naturally derived.
Did you know?
There are currently 7 petrochemical-derived artificial colors allowed in food today in the United States. Some of these are banned in other countries.
Artificial coloring has been linked to adverse health effects. Certain food dyes have been known to trigger allergies and they have also been said to aggravate ADD and ADHD symptoms.
Some companies make two kinds of the same food—one dyed for the U.S. market and one without banned dyes for the E.U. A widely noted example of this is Kraft’s macaroni and cheese.
Natural foods tend to contain dyes derived from edible substances and plants including blueberries, carrots, and annatto.

Paleo Diet Friendly ▸
x
A diet similar to that of early Paleolithic hunter-gatherers, consisting of meat, fish, poultry, eggs, and plants, but no dairy, grains, sugar, legumes or processed foods.
Did you know?
Stone Age diets had no cultivated grains or breads to sop up, say, the last bit of wooly mammoth stew. This makes Paleo diets naturally gluten-free.
You don’t have to eat Paleo daily to obtain this diet’s benefits. Going caveman 80% of the time can confer similar advantages.
Food for thought: About 70% of the calories in modern diets come from foods our Paleolithic ancestors in pre-pizza times could not have eaten.

Peanut Free ▸
x
Product contains no peanuts and is produced in a facility that that does not process peanuts in order to prevent cross-contamination.
Did you know?
Peanut allergies are on the rise. About 1 to 1.5 percent of the U.S. population is currently allergic to peanuts. These allergies range from mild to life threatening.
Due to the prevalence and severity of peanut allergies, many schools and even airlines have become peanut-free.
If you love PB&J but need to avoid the P, the market has responded. Alternatives to peanut butter now abound and include almond, cashew, soy, and even sunflower seed butters.

Fair Trade ▸
x
The farmers or workers who produced the product, its ingredients, and/or parts have been justly compensated for their work. Fair Trade certification is available from Fair Trade USA.
Did you know?
In 1988, coffee became the first product to receive official fair trade certification—further proof that everything worthwhile starts with a good cup of joe.
It takes a lot of people to monitor this growing arena; there are currently 1,030 fair trade certified organizations working to ensure fair trade standards in 67 countries around the globe.
Hungry for fair trade? You’re not alone. Food accounts for most fair trade imports. Based on paid premiums, coffee, cocoa, and fresh produce top the list.
The first fair trade store in the U.S. opened in 1958.
Consumers think fair trade is more than fair. In 2010, global sales hit almost $4.4 billion—a great thing for 3rd world farmers and artisans.

Pesticide Free ▸
x
No synthetic insecticides, herbicides, fungicides or rodenticides.
Did you know?
Unlike USDA organic, which has set rules about synthetic pesticide use, pesticide-free isn’t a third party certifiable claim.
Not every producer can afford to get certified by the USDA so pesticide-free is an unregulated claim you sometimes see on small batch products.
Pesticides can harm both humans and the environment—as well as the pests they’re meant to poison. There are health effects associated with specific pesticides and they contribute to water and soil pollution.
Pests can develop resistance to pesticides. When this happens, more and more are employed. This is referred to as the “pesticide treadmill.”

GMO Free ▸
x
No genetically modified or engineered organisms or ingredients derived from them. Claim can be verified by the Non-GMO Project.
Did you know?
Surveys show that over 90% of Americans think GM foods should be labeled. 53% say they wouldn’t buy food that’s been genetically modified.
The thing is, most of us are already buying GM foods. 80% of processed foods contain GMOs and 88% of all U.S. corn, 95% of sugar beets, and 94% of our soy is genetically modified.
Unlike the U.S., Most countries have just said no to GMOs. Nearly 50 have banned or significantly restricted GM crops.
Just five nations grow 90% of the world’s GM crops: Argentina, Brazil, Canada, India, and the U.S.
Most GMOs are altered to resist herbicides or bugs. One type of corn makes its own pesticides. Those pesticides are now showing up inside people.

Gourmet ▸
x
Natural foods tend to be purer foods, but that doesn’t mean they’re not also gourmet. We have many artisanal and even chef-driven food items that prove this point—deliciously.
|
Supports a Developing Country ▸
x
Significant proceeds from the sale of the product support the economy of the developing country of origin via payment or other means.
Did you know?
The definition of a developing or developed country is largely based on things like GDP, standard of living, and per capita income, but there are no specific qualifications. Some are worse off than others.
The World Bank defines developing countries as those with a gross national income per capita of less than $11,905.
Some people don’t like the term “developing country” and prefer to use other language, like “least developed countries.”

High Fructose Corn Syrup Free ▸
x
This product is made without any high fructose corn syrup.
Did you know?
High fructose corn syrup is cheap and therefore ubiquitous in packaged products. It has also been linked to a number of health problems including obesity, heart disease, and type 2 diabetes.
A fun documentary to watch on the topic is King Corn.
HFCS pops up in unexpected places and in foods most of us don’t consider sweet, including sliced bread, cereal, soup, and condiments.
A study done in 2009 found mercury contamination in samples of commercial HFCS.

Supports Charity ▸

The seller gives a portion of every sale to a charity of their choice. Kind of makes you want to buy extra, doesn’t it?

Vegan ▸
x
A form of vegetarianism. No animal products are eaten, including dairy, eggs, and honey. Many vegans also avoid non-edible animal products like fur, leather, and wool.
Did you know?
Veganism doesn’t just affect what happens in your kitchen. It can also reduce your carbon footprint by 1.5 tons per year!
Despite many worthy advantages, veganism has yet to win any popularity contests. Only 1.4% of American adults have decided to bite.
Babies like it, too; vegan breast milk tests show it contains significantly lower levels of pollutants like pesticides and dioxins than non-vegan breast milk.

Wheat Free ▸
x
No wheat, kamut, spelt, or ingredients derived from them.
Did you know?
Wheat-free and gluten-free are not the same, though wheat contains gluten. Gluten is a protein found not only in wheat, but also in rye and barley.
People who choose to avoid gluten often have Celiac disease. People who choose to avoid wheat tend to do so because it causes uncomfortable and sometimes allergic reactions in their bodies.

Woman-Owned Business ▸
x
The company producing the product is owned either wholly or in significant majority part by a woman or women.
Did you know?
Between 1997 and 2007, the number of women-owned businesses grew twice as fast as those started by men. A victory in the battle of the sexes?
Still a ways to go... While women own 30% of privately held businesses, they’re only responsible for 13% of the sector’s employment.
Women business owners do far more with much less. Studies show that they typically start with less capital than their male counterparts. They still manage to supply paychecks to 7.6 million employees.
7.2 million businesses in the U.S. are majority-owned by women.

low sugar ▸
x
Items containing low levels of sugars and other carbohydrates can be part of a low-sugar or low-carb diet recommended by doctors for diabetics.
Did you know?
The term “sugar high” may be truer than we thought; animals given intermittent access to sugar exhibit the same brain changes as drug addicts.
The average adult consumes 22 teaspoons of sugar a day, and teens eat about 34 teaspoons a day. This is partially because sugar is so prevalent in processed foods.
Meanwhile the American Heart Association recommends just 6 teaspoons of sugar a day for women and 9 for men.
There’s nothing sweet about the acne, obesity, heart disease, depression, and cancer that too much sugar is said to cause.

|
Yeast Free ▸
x
Products made without yeast may be beneficial to individuals suffering from candidiasis and other conditions related to microbiome imbalances.
Did you know?
Since yeast feeds on sugar, people eating yeast-free diets also avoid sugar.
If a digestive tract becomes overrun with yeast, it is said to lead to digestive upset (that’s a nice way of saying gas, diarrhea and bloating).
