Biodegradable Sponge
Unlike ordinary sponges, each Sqwishful pack contains three sponges which are packed together, compressed like cardboard. After being exposed to water, the sponge expands and can be used like other washing sponges. A very noticeable difference with Sqwishful is the trapezium shape rather than the rectangle, making it is easier to grasp. The sponges are made in the USA from natural, renewable plant-based materials and are  100 percent biodegradable. Buy from www.sqwishful.com.
Green Sriracha from Pita Jungle
Green Sriracha sauce is a variant of Pita Jungle’s signature sriracha sauce.

Medium in spice level, Green sriracha is delicious with pita sandwiches, hummus, or burgers. You can also try Pita Jungle’s Red and Ghost sriracha flavors, which are also non-dairy, vegan, non-GMO, and gluten-free. Available at all Pita Jungle restaurants in the Phoenix and Tucson areas.
