Living Harvest Tempt

Happy Post Christmas Day!!

Shooo! Christmas was exhausting. So glad it’s over. Although seeing Tyler opening his presents was the Bestestestest!

He wasn’t into opening presents this year,

but he sure loves playing with the toys that he received.

How was your holiday? Did you over-indulge?

I tried not to. We went to Todd’s Mom’s for Christmas Eve and had a delicious steak, green beans, and a baked potato. (I’m no longer meatless…again. I only lasted 13 days.) Andrea made her yummy chicken dip as well. I was pretty good not over eating, but for Christmas day we visited my Grandparents and my Aunt sent us home with some of her homemade cookies. To go along with the cookies, I’ve been drinking Vanilla Tempt Hempmilk.

I am not a milk drinker. I think it’s… well… nasty. Drinking from a cow, blech!! Todd drinks cow’s milk and it turns my stomach just watching him. For a milk substitute, I drink Hemp or Soymilk.

My favorite Hempmilk is made by a company by the name of Living Harvest Tempt.

“The seed of an idea for Tempt dates back over a decade to a time when science, education and creativity merged.

It happened at the University of Saskatchewan where scientists seeking a new source of vegetable protein began doing experiments with hemp. These enlightened Canadian researchers discovered the protein potential locked within the hemp seed. The balanced combination of essential fatty and amino acids provided a nutritional profile unlike any other vegetable. The Center for Food Science’s breakthrough gave us a brilliant and sustainable food source, which can be cultivated without negative environmental impact. Celebration ensued.

Fast forward to the Pacific Northwest.

Freedom loving, environmentalist, hempfood pioneers moved the fledgling company to Portland, Oregon. Connections were made with other hemp visionaries, actors, rock stars, natural foods champions, inventors, mad scientists, revolutionaries and hopeless optimists –

Tempt was born. Tempt hemp products multiply. Fans abound.”

Get your head out of the gutter. Just because it’s called hemp, doesn’t mean I’m a hippie or that I’m getting a buzz drinking this stuff. Read on…

“We look to dispel false myths and demystify hemp.

• Hemp is a plant-based superfood. It is an exceptional dairy alternative and a tasty substitute for nuts and soy. It’s vegan and gluten-free.
• As an agricultural crop, hemp is sustainable, non-GMO and grown without herbicides or pesticides, with no known allergens.
• Hemp is nothing to be afraid of. It’s not marijuana and has no drug value. In fact, it contains 0.00% THC.

Hemp seeds are the edible part of the hemp plant (cannabis sativa I). Some are surprised to learn they are one of the best sources of easily digestible, high-quality protein. Rich in all 10 essential amino acids, the building blocks of protein, hemp helps develop lean body mass and promotes muscular repair. It is an awesome source of Omega-3 and Omega-6 essential fatty acids, which support energy production, nervous system function, brain development, heart health and a healthy immune system. Not many foods can do all that.

Easy to see why hemp is the perfect – and perfectly healthy – natural food choice.

Until now hemp has been largely misunderstood. Join the evolution in the way we nourish our bodies. Make the change.”

See!! Told you!

The taste of this hempmilk is very much delicious. It’s sweet, smooth, and silky. I absolutely love it. I was sent a few coupons to try this brand and I am certainly a new fan and customer. I used up the coupons and I grab it at the store whenever I’m out. I absolutely love this stuff!!

Along with hempmilk, Living Harvest Tempt, makes and sells, hemp oil, hemp protein powder, ice cream bars, and non dairy frozen dessert.

I haven’t seen the ice cream bars yet but when I do, I’ll be sure to pick up a box to try.

So… what did you over-indulge on, if anything?
