Verdadero Organic
Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose. This time, I lost. I know eating organic is a big buzzword these days. Hey! I’ll admit, some of the foods I eat I’ve switched to organic versions and my stomach has never felt better. Unfortunately, I’m not sure how successful organic tobacco will be. If it is to […]
