The Kind Diet and other kind products

Yea! I'm currently cooking my first "Kind Diet" meal in the new house. Over the last year I've taken a liking to Alicia Silverstone's book "The Kind Diet". I don't follow the diet religiously but it's great to know I have the knowledge to make a healthy, calming meal. She also has a website www.thekindlife.com. Lots of cool posts about vegan restaurants and products available, plus a forum to discuss any level of vegetarianism.

Speaking of kind products, I recently got to try a sample of Tom's of Maine's new Wicked! Fresh toothpaste through Bzzagent. Tom's of Maine does not test on animals (although I believe it's parent company still does, FYI). They also use natural ingredients that are a fresh change from the chemicals in normal toothpaste. The flavor they sent me is peppermint which I've always found to be a bit strong, but it doesn't taste nasty. The toothpaste is supposed to keep your breath fresh all day. Don't know if it lasts longer than other toothpaste, but certainly as long. I have a few extra samples left if you'd like to try it. Just shoot me an email and I'll send it to you!

Mike always has his top 100 lists for media at the end of the year so this year I'm going to have a "top" list too. Mostly vegan products I've tried and been impressed with. Keep an eye out for that toward the end of the year.
