I only source food from organic and grass-fed and finished privately or employee owned small business brands. If they are owned by corporations, they shouldn't be on this list (but it sure is hard to keep up as many sell out eventually). See “Where to Order” as most of the products and brands you'll find here are available from either Vitacost or iHerb online or Azure Standard or both. You can also buy them directly from the brand, but that only makes sense if you want them in bulk (due to minimum purchases required to get free shipping). Vitacost has free shipping for $50+ orders and a lot of promotions and discounts. Be sure to check their “Promo Pocket” tabs.NOTE: I only recommend brands and products owned by private or employee owned companies. But you can buy them through corporations which is sometimes the only local or online source if the brand doesn't retail their products online. And sadly, most brands price very high on their own sites because they don't want to compete with the retailers. For example, Chewy is publicly traded and 80% owned by private equity. Vitacost sold out to Kroger = corporate owned. The problem is they both are massive and have deals with shippers, so their prices are vastly lower than anywhere else.

I picked up my love of cooking from my grandparents, one on either side of the family. My mother's mother always had the ingredients on hand for a cake or a fresh batch of dinner rolls, and it didn't take much to convince her to bust them out. My father's father, on the other hand, was a man who lived to feed his community. He grew up during the Depression, and nothing gave him more joy than laying out a giant table of food and sitting back to watch his loved ones eat. I learned the joy of good food from both of them.

I love good food! Whether it’s a fancy, upscale restaurant, or a casual, little hole in the wall. For me the best experiences come when the food and service are above and beyond.
