A mommy’s thoughts on FIJI Water
FIJI Green Gal: This week, one of my colleagues is joining this blog to share her thoughts on FIJI Water. As she is the proud mother of twins – and therefore one of the toughest women I know! – we”ve dubbed her “FIJI”s Favorite Mom.”
Admittedly I am a Mommy who talks about her kids WAY TOO MUCH! And this blog just gives me another outletÖ
Fact: I love my kids. But having responsibility for them is already scary enough, and what I feed them is at the top of my anxiety list!
It started before they were born. I would travel as far as necessary to shop for groceries, paying double for a prenatal vitamin, organic waffles (they”re all I could keep down the first 4 months), other organics, pesticide/hormone/flavor-free everything…just so I knew my growing babies were getting the best nutrition available. Now add to that the fluid intake I needed. I”ve never been one for soda or highly caloric juices, so I relied on water. With most foods, I got heartburn. I tried all the water I could, whether based on a cute bottle, flavor, or price, but even water gave me heartburn! Then I tried FIJI Water and loved the taste. And I could drink more without getting heartburn. Other mommies-to-be told me it was the purest water I could drink and provided natural minerals both the babies and I could benefit from.
Fast forward a few years later, I”m now an employee at FIJI Water. A week into my job, they sent me to the island of Fiji to see where the water comes from. I have seen where the water comes from and gets put into the iconic square bottle. I am proud to work for a product that is as natural and untouched as the product claims. And I am proud to serve the best in my home – especially to my kids!
BTW: Since working here, I”ve learned about BPA, and the product has never had it!
