Win Organic Dairy Products for a Year

I signed up for the Organic Valley newsletter quite a long time ago.  You can visit Organic Valley Subscription Center to sign up if you like.  I enjoy the articles they send.  Today's newsletter contained a link to enter a contest to win organic dairy products for a year.  Just the opportunity to win a prize like this is really great but there is another added perk.  Every time someone enters the contest they will donate $0.20 to Wholesome Wave.  This sounds like a great organization that gives families in need access to healthy, nutritious food. 

Enter to win a year's worth of Stonyfield or Organic Valley dairy products. One winner is drawn at random each week. Go here to enter Stonyfield / Organic Valley giveaway.

Johnson & Johnson Baby Shampoo To Be Reformulated

I just found out that on November 1, 2011 Johnson & Johnson announced they will reformulate the Baby Shampoo they make in the US.  They had previously removed the harmful chemicals from the formulations in other countries.  At the time when I wrote this post Boycott of Johnson & Johnson Baby Shampoo I did not know that they had agreed to do this.  I just found out this morning about the steps J&J is taking from the website MomsRising.org.  I have signed their thank you letter to J&J.  I will stay away from the shampoo until they announce that the chemical has been completely removed.  If you sign the thank you letter MomsRising.org will let you know when the chemicals have been removed.

Boycott of Johnson & Johnson Baby Shampoo

Okay yesterday I was appalled  when I read this story on MSN about the Boycott of Johnson & Johnson Baby Shampoo.  How can they get away with leaving these chemicals in baby products?  I have been using the J&J Baby Shampoo and Aveno Baby Wash since my son was born and he will be two in a few days.  It is amazing to me that J&J makes these products in formulations that do not contain trace amounts of potentially cancer-causing substances; however, not in the US.  Really the harmful substances have been taken out in other countries why not in the US.

I stopped using these products last night and I will not use them any longer I am going to see if I can buy some natural or organic products with my Eversave voucher for Abe's Market.


I wanted to share this with everyone in case you may be using the affected products.  Please check out the article if you.  I think it is better to be safe and not use the affected products why take the chance.
