I am working on my husband to start eating Organic foods. We are empty nesters now, and he cant get used to the increased price for organic foods. But I am working to change his mind as I know this will be so much better for us. So if I win this, it is step in the right direction to sway him.

This is a perfect package of staples. And Whole Foods has the perfect matches for each of these items. This would make a wonderful "picnic basket" for a weekend getaway or quiet time at home.
