Researchers have also suggested honey acts as an effective antibiotic to MRSA, the antibiotic-resistant bacteria.

Re plastic bags and the Coop check-out

Hi, I want to give a big kudo to whoever posted a picture at the check-out of a sea animal dead from a plastic bag. I usually forget to bring in with me the bags I carry in my car. Then at the check-out counter I run out and get them, or take plastic - "just this time". I know about plasti...

Hi Brian, I don't think I know you. Just want to say I visited Burlington a few years ago, and it is a great place!! The only place I've ever been where the sixties seem to remain: I saw people giving away free clothes, lots of bumper stickers, a big house with a porch, and lots of shoes on the porc...

Thanks for thinking of this. The last time I talked to Bill, it was at the oranges. I asked him which were the sweetest. In the midst of the usual Co-op Chaos, he stopped and explained to me about oranges from Fl vs from Cal and the climate and the water in the orange. What a kindness - to be so bus...

Would you suggest some better oils, please.

Coffeehouse in HP offers food for the mind, soul and body

Hi everybody, I've been wanting to let the Co-op community know about the coffeehouse, especially last month, when the Co-op's own Ken Lipman provided the music - but -until now I didn't know how to get on this message board.

Having opted out of the medical/pharmaceutical/biotechnical industry as much as possible, I am most interested.

Does anyone know the original poster and if she(he) is still interested?
