Jim's Organic Coffee

Our new Jim's Organic Coffee or  Teeccino Herbal Coffee has a variety of flavors that are sure to please anyone.

Teeccino's Herbal Coffee

Herbal coffee is a blend of herbs, nuts, fruits and grains that are roasted, ground and brewed just like coffee. Dark, rich, and full-bodied, Teeccino brings you all the satisfaction of a robust brew with no caffeine reaction. Teeccino tastes mildly sweet from dates and figs, but only has 15 calories per cup! Teeccino contains 65mg of potassium to give your body a natural energy lift and 365mg of inulin to enhance your digestion and improve your elimination!   Regular coffee tends to have an acidifying effect on the body whereas Teeccino Herbal coffee is naturally alkalizing making it not only a good tasting coffee/caffeine substitution but a healthy one as well.

We have several varieties to choose.  We also offer trial packs that cost only $0.99 and brews 6 cups of "coffee" - a great way to try a flavor before you purchase the larger size.

Sweet and Easy Popcorn Popper

This is the same design as the popular Whirley Pop only the Sweet and Easy popcorn popper is made of stainless steel (not aluminum).  Priced at $39.99

Personal note - I tried this popper and was totally impressed.  It pops EVERY kernel from start to finish in about 1 ½ minutes!!! (A little longer for the kettle corn).  It doesn't get any easier than this!!!

A small recipe book is included with the popper.  You can use as little as 1 Tablespoon of oil to ½ cup of popcorn.  I tried both, olive oil and coconut oil.  I also made the kettle corn recipe in the cookbook included with the popper, substituting agave nectar for the sugar called for in the recipe.  It was fabulous!!!  

You will love this popper!!!   Remember popcorn is a great wholegrain snack!!  So order a pail of popcorn to go with this great popper!!!
