If you are a frequenter of Whole Foods, I am sure you have seen plenty of the FEED 100 totes hanging on display. They've been around since April, but for those of you that are reluctant to give in to the reusable tote craze, I think this is the bag for you. With the green movement in full force, there has been an influx of brands that are taking advantage of selling the "fashionable canvas tote." I believe that this one is actually worth $29.99 because $10 from every bag sold helps provide 100 nutritious meals to hungry school children in Rwanda. These bags are practical, eco-friendly, and, most importantly, for a good cause. Also, I have found that not only do you walk away with a cute reusable shopping bag but a good conscience as well!
