Tempo by Home Chef | Green News Guide Reviews

Image
Tempo meals is a weekly food delivery service that offers flavorful protein centered meals in the quantity of your choosing.  If you’ve been rocking with the Green News Guide then you might have read previous reviews about other food delivery services such as Cook Unity, Mosaic or Gobble.  Tempo was originally launched by Home Chef in October of 2023.  I found their meal selection process to be super easy and the website was very user friendly.  Customers can select the subscription of their choice based on the number of meals desired on a weekly basis. One can opt for a quantity of 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14 or 16 meals per week at $11 per serving.   Ordering & Delivery process Tempo’s meals usually feature a protein (beef, chicken, fish, shrimp) that is usually paired with a vegetable medley.  There is also the choice to select from “premium” meal options that are about $3-$5 additional per serving.  One con that I noticed about Tempo is that there...

Poosh Wellness Festival 2020

Poosh’s 1st Wellness Festival took place yesterday! This self-care retreat was an experience with 12 virtual sessions on topics such as DIY flower arrangement and skin care, detoxing your shower routine, and more. The virtual festival kicked off with a matcha opening ceremony and a quick interview between Kourtney Kardashian and her best friend Sarah. Kourtney elaborated on the reason she started Poosh:





“When I started Poosh, I really loved the most—the idea of sharing a lifestyle and of sharing information with people in a non judgmental, just really accessible way.”
Kourtney also said that she would receive questions about the foods she was eating or about her lifestyle and from there, the idea for Poosh developed. As for this wellness festival, she mentioned that she wanted to dedicate a day to bringing a live wellness experience to people.
Standout Sessions
I thought all of the sessions were informative. It was a nice peek into the natural health and wellness lifestyle for those who are newbies to it. There were a few standouts that I enjoyed most at POOSH Wellness Festival! They were:
1.) Glutes Workout and Post Workout Smoothie with Courtney King (Courtney had such amazing energy and put together a glutes workout that is sure to get results)! It was leg day on steroids! I put my own spin on the smoothie which I’ll share in another post : )

2.) Lymphatic Drainage Facial with Camila Perez with Adrienne as a lively subject (Camilla spilled her prized secrets to giving a spectacular lymphatic drainage facial. This is a wellness activity that can be useful for folks who take self-care seriously, especially considering the lack of access to wellness retreats and centers at the moment).

3.) DIY Body scrub with Nyakio Kamoche Grieko (The one key ingredient in Nyakio’s scrub was coffee but not just any ole coffee…East African Kenyan coffee which is said to have notes of citrus in the flavor.) Though I’m not a fan of caffeine, I will acknowledge that it has benefits for the skin. It was nice hearing Nyakio’s story about her grandparents who passed on body care recipes to her.

4.) Guided Meditation with Ryan Haddon (Ryan offered self affirmations that were empowering and soul-elevating).

5.) How to Take the Perfect Selfie with Malika Haqq and Roxy Rodriguez (For some, taking the perfect selfie can be a mood lifter (haha)! There was a phone featured in this session that wowed the techie in me. The phone was foldable and seems perfectly designed for taking selfies. Turns out, it is called, the Samsung Galaxy Z flip. That’s a really cool phone!

After the festival, participants were given a virtual gift bag with promos for products from sponsoring brands. My only gripe about the festival is that I thought the event was going to be live streamed. Sessions were pre-recorded. I can see this being a really amazing retreat-style in-person event once life normalizes again.
Well—that’s a wrap Ms. Kourtney and a good wrap at that--so klaps to you for following your primary purpose of pooshing people into health and wellness.
Would you like to experience Poosh’s Wellness Festival for yourself? The sessions will be up for viewing until Oct 31st! Purchase your all access ticket here: Get tickets

FDA Bans First FD&C Dye! Which Will be Next?

Image
The FDA has moved to finally ban Red Dye No. 3 from use in food and drugs in America.  Red Dye No. 3 was first determined to be a cancer causing color additive almost 30 years ago.  Studies conducted using labs rats found that they became inflicted with the disease after consuming large amounts of Red dye No. 3.  Thirty years ago, the FDA officially banned Red Dye No. 3 from use in cosmetics but left the door open for it to be used as a color additive in food and prescription drugs.  By January 2027, the FDA has ordered that Red Dye No 3 must be removed from all food in the USA and by 2028--from all drugs. Food Manufacturers Shiver in their Boots Red Dye No. 3 has mostly been used in baked goods, sweets and candies.  It is used by prominent candy manufacturers such as Mars Inc (Skittles) and Just Born Quality Confections (Peeps).  Food Manufacturing giants such as Con Agra, McCormick, Heinz, General Mills and Pepsi Co will all have to find alternatives for ...

Fenty Sidestick Is it All that?

Image
The Fenty Side Stick is a 3 in 1 edge styling tool.  It was mentioned in a comprehensive review  of Rihanna's hair line, however, I hadn't yet purchased it.  I wanted to briefly compare The Side Stick to the type of edge brushes that are found in your average beauty store.  The Side Stick arrived in a light orange box with the signature Fenty packaging and logo. On the back of the box, is a photo of the Side Stick.  The photo on the back of the packaging is almost the same length as the Side Stick so the user can get a sense of the actual length of the product.  When it is taken out of the package, the end piece needed to be snapped on. It's a nice rose chrome colored tail which makes for precise parting and creation of swooped styles.  If any of you ladies love your 90s Aaliyah style swooped bangs, the Side Stick is going to get you right every time! It has a duo brush and comb head instead of being at opposite ends like an average edge brush and com...

First Ethical Diamond Made from Agave

Image
1800 Tequila is a spirit brand that has managed to create a diamond made from Mexican tequila. Their tequila is made in Tequila, Mexico using a traditional distillation process extracted from blue Weber agave. 1800 Tequila is known for its flavored tequilas such as coconut and a ñejo , an expression with rich butterscotch and vanilla notes. 1800 Tequila has diverged from their usual route of tequila production to enter the luxury jewelry scene. The unique 5.5 carat diamond was unveiled at this year’s Met Gala whose theme was centered around the Black Dandy expressionist form. The diamond was crafted into a brooch designed by Jonathan Raksha and was worn by actress and vocalist, Janelle Monae. There was no other deserving person to wear this masterpiece as Monae has been somewhat of a new school pioneer of Dandy expressionism.   The diamond was flanked in white gold within an inverted setting surrounded by smaller diamonds and also white sapphires. 1800 Tequila is always pushin...
