We are all about saving trees, but if you’d like to spread the good-n-green word by posting an Ideal Bite tip in a public place, we encourage you do so on recycled paper. Thanks and Happy Biting!

If 10,000 SF Biters buy recycled greeting cards instead of nonrecycled ones for a year, we'll save 34 trees.

According to the US Greeting Card Association, women purchase more than 80% of all greeting cards, but men tend to spring for pricier ones.

The Bite:
Wanna make sure your important snail mail is as hands-down, unassailably stylish as you are? No more discussion: Get a custom set of stationery from Bernal Heights' Yellow Owl Workshop. YO will make you an original, elegantly modern design for special (or even semi-special) occasions, and each set of 25 comes with return-addressed envelopes packaged in an archival box. Its signature earth-tone ink choices (though YO has them all, in case you're a fan of hot pink) are water-based and nontoxic (no chems here), and are printed onto 100% recycled paper made at a mill powered by hydroelectricity, saving trees and finite fossil fuels. They also crank out custom invitations, personalized journals with recycled chipboard covers - even dinner-party menus. End of story.
Wanna Try?
Yellow Owl Workshop, available online and at Little Otsu, 849 Valencia St. (415-255-7900). Custom stationery set, $125.
