Naturally Organic?

I watched this segment on Marketplace- Canada's Consumer Watchdog the other day and was stunned! I know that some  a lot of companies have jumped on the ECO bandwagon using clever marketing to portraying natural or organic products and in truth are not. But I was shocked to see some of the products on the top ten list of Marletplace's lousy labels! Seventh Generation chlorine free diaper- they actually dye their diaper a beige- brown colour to look more earthy.... whaaaaat? seriously!  and Huggies "Natural" baby wipes actually has a chemical in them that is on  Health Canada's Hot List ie list of dangerous chemicals to avoid!
Check out the link below to watch the programme....

Time to read those labels, I know I will be taking a closer look at what I am buying. Especially the products claiming to be organic since they tend to be a lot more $$$$. Yikes what a sham!

Here's a little somethin' that's not a sham and totally organic!





It was all very cute until he peed on the floor! He has been loving his naked self these days and it's very fine line between just enough and too much naked time heehee.
