In the context of food riots and other agricultural woes, it's hard to consider the luxuries of life. But making consumption more about quality, not quantity is in the environmental, sustainable vein. And vodka is cultural, too, which is not a frivolous matter. 360 Vodka is not organic, but it is distilled in a small Missouri operation and made from local grains. The company also uses waste-paper labels, giving it a green edge. The other newest vodka is Square One which is distilled in Idaho from organic rye grain grown in North Dakota. Actually, it's more important for wine to be organic because so many of the ingredients remain in the final product. And vodka distillation burns off impurities. But here is an instance where you can support the organic and/or local booze for environmental reasons, and know that you're supporting small-scale, boutique distilleries and small-operation farmers. And that's important because, while you can find small wineries, spirits are generally owned by multinationals. This new trend toward small distilleries is a heartening path, and may lead people to think “green” when filling up the shot glass. Na Zdorovie!

It's true what our moms said...we are what we eat. In fact, it's truer than they thought. What I eat doesn't just affect me anymore, it affects all of us.
Unfortunately, the story of food can sometimes be complicated. But envirovores help each other out...which is why this blog will be bringing you news, tips, and information about food and the environment every step of the way.
