If you're an Alaskan you may find yourself wondering how to source truly healthy foods and household items that we can't grow or make here. I completely get it. It is a frustration of mine, too! Today I had the opportunity to visit with David Stelzer, owner and founder of Azure Standard, and what an incredible interview! We talked about a bit of everything including how Azure got started, why their canning jars are made in China (listen up - the answer will surely surprise you), how Alaskans can use Azure as their main source of groceries after buying local, and so much more! (If you're interested in learning more about Azure Standard, create an account here: https://www.azurestandard.com/?a_aid=1tgPd1lZHA and check it out. Take time to compare everything. I think you'll be pleasantly surprised!) A few quotes that really resonated with me: REGARDING SUBSTANDARD CARAB: "We found that it was impossible so we had to do it ourselves." "We built our own carab factory - we were the only organic carob manufacturer in the country!" REGARDING A PRODUCT THAT STARTED INCLUDING A GMO INGREDIENT "I couldn't continue to sell it and pretend it's not happening." "We are not going to sacrifice our soul for growth." There are so many more awesome nuggets but I would encourage you - just give it a listen.
