Why Buy Natural and Organic Allspice

Why Buy Natural and Organic Allspice

Most spices are grown overseas, and allspice is no exception - the finest specimens cultivated in Jamaica where the soil is well suited to this berry tree. Spices generally undergo a process to kill any and all potential bacteria - two ways being irradiation and fumigation with ethylene oxide, a pesticide. Though these are the cheapest and easiest ways, there are alternatives that aren't harmful to either your health or the planet's. Purchase your allspice and all spices organically to ensure all-around safety, and to proclaim that you support sustainable farming practices.
