Eating Healthy On the Go and Supporting the Green Movement

Good Day to everyone,


So yesterday afternoon Dino and I decided to take our Live Green membership card and test it out for lunch at the Cafe Green Restaurant in N.W Washington D.C.


Live Green is an organization that helps local organic, environmentally friendly restaurants, businesses , Eco-friendly products and operation,and high quality affordable services by promoting them and offering potential customers discounts to the restaurants. 

A  yearly donation is required for the discount card but every bit helps and it gives you and your family exposure to many different products,services and good food you may not have known existed. The cost is $18.00 per year and is good for 1 year and every year it renews unless you cancel it. The products and services are amazing because it save on where you eat ,shop,cleaning services,workouts,utilities,business services,Spas all geared towards Green Living/Healthier Environment.Their standards are very high. You may also get discounts online. Excellent Resource!!!

For one it is supporting businesses that care about the quality of food it is giving there customers, two it  supports the local farmers and three it supports the environment so that toxins and unnatural products are not being released into the body or the air in the form of food processing, fuel for food delivery and the use of pesticides or herbicides( toxins)spraying using machinery like aerial sprayers which require oil .Both of these substances create toxins in the air, water and our food supply.

Back to our visit to Cafe Green we ordered a veggie burger with cheese and a non-chicken chick'n sandwich with chips, vegan nachos, and a strawberry shake which included an ice cream alternative called Rice Dream and fresh strawberries and all I can say is Yummy and I felt great after words not bogged down.

Everything tasted fresh and was organic. I did not miss the traditional burger loaded with fat cholesterol, hormones, antibiotics. The milkshake contained no fructose corn syrup. The cheese was amazing it was daiya cheese a non dairy cheese it tasted very cheesy to me.


I give the Restaurant 5 stars for taste and quality!! Amazing  food very satisfied customer Do yourself a favor and stop by for lunch or dinner.


 Thanks for reading and remember Research Research don't just take my word for it.  We try to inform parents and people to make healthier live choices for their families and to provide resources to make it easier to do..

By for now Eat Well Be Well!!!
