Do you buy any? If so, which?

I buy Café Direct coffee. It's ok.

My friend works in a fair trade shop, so I pop in to see her and buy the organic ginger biscuits, or Green and Blacks chocolate, or Clipper organic tea, or cereal bars, or presents for friends. All very tasty. I've not tried any of the wines yet, but am looking forward to getting round to it.

Coffee. Bananas. Body butter. If a fairly traded option is available at my supermarket, I'll generally buy it, but that's cause I'm a bleeding heart liberal, me.

We buy the coffee and the Green & Blacks chocolate too. I didn't know the Green & Blacks was fair trade - I just knew it was tasty.

Green and Blacks do easter eggs now, and they're HUGE and inviting. Pricey, though.

The numminess of G&B chocolate is in danger of being outweighed by the smugness of its advertising.

Everything's 'fairly traded' if you steal it

I have never seen a G&B advert so remain free to enjoy.... sooooo much....

I do buy fair trade bananas mostly, but my shopping habits are rather erratic.

I'm in love with the coffee.

What the hell is this thread about?

Hippie candy, Millar, or so I think you might say.
