Tilapia Is Tops :

Unlike most farm-raised fish, which must eat other fish to grow, tilapia is an omnivore that can thrive on soy, corn, wheat, algae and plant waste. Plus, tilapia farms can be housed indoors where resulting wastewater and pollution are better controlled. Thirty thousand pounds of tilapia can be raised on just three acres annually — the same amount of space it takes to raise one 650-pound cow. — Slowfoodnation.org

Green & Black Chocolates

Why They're Good:

Green & Black's, which was named for the twin pleasures of organic ingredients (green) and deep dark chocolate (black), has been producing its wildly popular bars since 1991. A staple at health food stores across the country, its consistently high-quality chocolate and array of flavors — Dark, Milk, White, Mint, Caramel, Almond, Espresso, Cherry, Hazelnut & Currant, Maya Gold and Ginger — have given this brand a solid foothold in the hearts of chocolate lovers everywhere.

Why They're Green:

These chocolates are certified organic by the California Certified Organic Farmers (CCOF), meeting U.S. Department of Agriculture National Organic Program (NOP) standards. The Trinitario cacao beans are shade-grown alongside indigenous crops such as papaya and coffee and are harvested by fairly paid farmers using sustainable farming methods.

Where To Get Them:
