If 10,000 LA Biters make their next coffee purchase a lb of organic instead of conventional, we'll avert the weight of 556 espresso machines in toxic chems, and help wildlife and workers.

To Bean or Not to Bean?

The Bite

Debating whether your coffee is good for you or not? Get your answer with a cup from Healthy Bean. Infused with powerhouse antioxidants such as green tea, grape seed extract, wild blueberry, and pomegranate, and packing as much protein as a hard-boiled egg, HB's joe is anything but average. Um, taste? Obviously good (we don't mess around with our Java) - try the French Roast or Vanilla Nut at its WeHo coffee house, or newest location in Torrance. Every "healthy bean" is organically grown to support sustainable, pesticide-free harvesting methods, and it's fairly traded, helping farmers earn a living. Now the only question you'll be asking yourself is, "Refill?"

Wanna Try

The Healthy Bean, 8470 Santa Monica Blvd. at La Cienega Blvd. (323-848-9401). Bag of French Roast Ground Coffee, $17.99/12 oz.
