Like radicchio is/was in the US. In Italy it's abundant and cheap! I'm here about 12 days and already missing kale, but today I got some gorgeous organic acelga and other greens at El Galpon.

Wow, Aleina Dee. This last post of yours is pure gold! Thanks so much. (I will write you privately.) I am actually going to send Julia from El Rincon Organico to your post on this thread, because it may be a sense of competition they are not even aware of blocking them from finding resources...

My first week here, almost up, has been intense as I've continued my work while settling in as quickly as possible. Ate in neighborhood restaurants all week because I can't bear to buy food in the supermarket; got a few small bags of produce from the Bolivian kiosks. Though not organic...

What's the best canned fish to get, especially from a health-conscious point of view? Considerations: low mercury, good fishing practices, fished from cleaner waters, . . . and whatever you want to add. For those of you who think I'm too picky, just let the organic/paleo peeps answer. All...

Has anyone been to "San Telmo Verde Feria Organica"? Someone just sent emailed me one-liner that it's new. I'm finally here, btw. Arrived on Monday. :) So happy to be back.

I had looked up the nutritional content too and was really impressed with the calcium: half a teaspoon - 900 mg. of calcium. That's 75% of what's recommended daily for people over 50 (1,200 mg.), 90% for people a decade younger. I'd wash them well, maybe even in a bath with diluted ACV, and...

. . . . we had also talked about "good chocolate" in this thread. So yesterday when I arrived in BA, I brought for 4 special Porteña friends 100g. each of "Black & Green" organic 85% dark chocolate, and they each got to choose from the selection of organic, beautifully hand-crafted slabs of...

Can anyone recommend, from the organic "underground" of BA, a hair stylist/colorist who avoids toxic chemicals?

Are a variety of berries coming into season now? But here's what I really want to know (asking cautiously after sleslie23's post today): has anyone seen frozen organic berries at El Galpon or elsewhere?

I love threads in which people are talking about what they love. Thanks for starting it, CaliCoco. I'm not arriving till next week, but I easily find intelligent, "soulful" people to hang out with in BA. However, my main reason for spending months at a time there is the quality of tango...

Gringoboy, I don't know Zona Norte at all, but on the north side of the city is my friend Shahrukh's Indian restaurant, Tandoor: https://www.facebook.com/TandoorBA

How big was a small jar of coconut oil, Marcopolo?

Yikes, Laura. Looks like there aren't many copywriters here to help, nor people who hire them. I sometimes hire an editor, but do my own writing. I recently asked my current editor (also a writer), what kind of monthly retainer she'd want to edit my weekly ezine, and she told me something that...

Hi everyone. Do you know someone who loves, loves, loves Argentine Tango, but struggles with anxiety or feelings of inadequacy in milongas? I'm the Tango Mastery Coach, and I specializing in helping men dance Argentine Tango like a dream and make women melt in their arms. Their tango then...

If we keep our comments and investigation results in this thread, DJSavWar, it should then be a cinch for anyone who wants to take on the project. Thanks for the link, lucha54!

All good stuff. Thanks, everyone. Hot women, you ask, Mc Kenna? All my friends/collaborators are "Tango Ladies", expert milongueras, and they're "hot" from the inside out (sensual, secure in their femininity, know how to make a man feel great, etc.) Back to gift choices, while this...

This is fun. Thanks so far, everyone. I saw a post on an old thread about bringing quality chocolate, and I just discovered how good and smooth is Black and Green organic with 85% cacao. Is really good chocolate truly rare? I remember seeing "Milka" everywhere. . . bleh. Haha, TomAtAlki...

I'm coming from the US soon and want to bring some small, thoughtful gifts that my Porteña friends (all women on this short list) will really enjoy. Suggestions? (I said "Porteño" in the topic title because I think it would be nice to have ideas for everyone in the thread.) Thanks in advance!

I'd like to suggest an alternative to drugs to relieve migraines. For just about any health issue, I turn to http://earthclinic.com; most solutions are home remedies that cost pennies and have no side effects. Many are reported to be amazingly effective for people. You may want to try some of...

Thank you for your advice, observations and suggestion, everyone. I've also been sent some ideas by private message. Glad to know that Uruguay offers possibilities. I can go dance tango in Montevideo a couple of nights. :) Sleuth, I'll PM you if I need the referral. Thank you!
