Tropical Traditions Barley: Review & Giveaway


Yum.
Barley is one of Monkey's new favorite foods.  I can get him to eat just about anything if I serve it with barley.  I love it that we are able to serve organic whole grain barley to our boys.  

With our recent change in diet, barley is a fantastic addition to our dry goods.  We really enjoy experimenting with it and will need to buy more as soon as our current supply runs low.  We trust Tropical Traditions to bring us healthy products that will help our family to improve ur quaqlity of life and health.  

BUY IT: Tropical Traditions organic hulled barley is currently on sale!  A 5 pound bag is $8.15 and a 10 pound bag is only 15.49!  What a great bargain for organic whole grains.
