100% organic Ocimum basilicum L. (sweet basil leaf)

Organic spices not only taste great, but have multi-fold benefits. By purchasing organic products, you are supporting sutainable agriculture that enriches the soil and the earth, instead of contaminating it with harsh chemicals. You are preserving the beauty of the earth for future generations. And you are keeping harmful toxins from chemical pesticides and fertilizers out of your body.

A bit about basil, from the Simply Organic website:

Wildly popular in ethnic and American kitchens, basil's warm, sweet, mildly minty/peppery flavor is enjoyed with vegetables (especially tomatoes), in dressings and sauces, soups and stews, and with meats, beans, and grains. It's even earned a place next to oregano on pizzas.

I love the bottles from Simply Organic. They are glass, beautifully shaped, have a metal lid, and have the name of the spice printed on top of the lid to make it easier to find your spices when looking from above (the label on the lid is great for my lazy susan).

The affordability of organic products has come a long way. Simply Organics spices are extremely price-competitive for such a high-quality item. I was comparing prices recently at a grocery store and was pleased to discover that Simply Organics is often just as cheap, if not cheaper, than McCormick spices (which are not organic).
