Yes, absolutely (well, except for coffee, tea and spices). We already try to buy local as much as possible, forseeing the time when that will be necessity not privilege.

Yep, that would be awesome! A strong health message would be to place the labels on glass bottles and not plastic. Thanks for sharing.
