Shop (Healthy!) ‘Til You Drop

February 16, 2011 by Julie 930 Comments

Approximately two weeks ago, I received a package in the mail from iHerb.com. I was contacted by the company and offered a $50 shopping spree on their site and jumped at the chance  to stock up on some goodies I was dying to try…

Like chia seeds!

Chia for Mia!

And wheat berries!

Wheat Berry Bonanza

And coconut butter!

Artisana Coconut Butter

Ryan and I finished the entire jar of coconut butter in three days. We’re special. And it really is that delicious.

I loved perusing iHerb’s website because it’s a clean, no-frills website that offers a wide variety of brand-name natural products.

In the end, I nabbed the following for $50:

  • Nature’s Answer chia seeds
  • Bob’s Red Mill soft white wheat berries
  • Artisana coconut butter
  • Kashi TLC Honey Toasted 7-Grain bars
  • Now Foods Pistachios
  • Nurture Inc. Strawberry Puffs
  • 2 sample packets coconut butter (1 chocolate, 1 organic raw)

I can honestly say I loved every single product I selected! Seeing as how I received all of these goodies about two weeks ago and only the chia seeds and wheat berries remain, I’d say I liked ’em juuust fine.

And now for the best part of this post!

iHerb.com is offering one reader a $50 shopping spree of their own! Woo!

Now you can stock up on healthy goodies and we can talk about our shared love of chia seeds because I just know you’ll love ’em if you haven’t tried them yet.

To enter this giveaway, simply comment on this post telling me about one item you’d select as part of your shopping spree on iHerb.com if you won this giveaway.

I will randomly select a winner tomorrow afternoon. Good luck!

    I would definitely go for the chia seeds. I’m the last healthy living blogger on the face of the planet that hasn’t tried them. So I need to see what all the fuss is about. Pick me, pick me!

    Definitely coconut butter! I was a little hesitant at first, but if you and Ryan polished off a jar, it’s gotta be good!

    Different sorts of flours. And I need to try that coconut butter. I have coconut oil but have never tried the butter. I love chia seeds but just made wheatberries for the first time this week. I love how chewy they are!

    Ummm… Artisana! Duh! I’ve attempted to make my own, and overheated my Kitchenaid food processor in the progress 🙁 Also, I’d love to order some fish oil tablets as I’ve been out for so long, and my hair is suffering. I hate being unemployed!

    I’d prob get the chia seeds since i just bought a package for the first time this week and I’m goin through them fast! Also, did you know you can make your own coconut butter?? It’s so easy…I found out from heathereatsalmondbutter.com . You just blend unsweetened dried coconut flakes in a food processor for like 10 min, and voila! Waaaay cheaper than the store bought stuff.
