Organic Birthday

I wrote about my wife's 30% organic shopping trip to Meijer, and yesterday was the day we celebrated by birthday and got to eat all those goodies. The breakfast was smoothies with organic yogurt, bananas, blueberries, and orange juice; and organic eggs and turkey sausage. The highlight was the organic ice cream cake (no cake mix). The crust was a layer of crushed organic chocolate cookies held together with organic unsalted butter. Then two layers of Meijer Organics ice cream of different flavors, and topped with melted organic fair trade chocolate chips. It is excellent!

Meijer has come out with their own brand of organics called Meijer Organics. All the containers have this wording: "All Meijer Organics products are made with: No artificial ingredients; minimal processing; no pesticides, antibiotics, or growth hormones; dedication to renewable farming practices." The orange juice carton I read that off of does have a USDA Organic cert stamp.
