One for the homies... or something like that.
Clare, an update on that Heath & Heather company thing. I've done a bit of investigating (because I also have their Nettle and Peppermint teas) and have found the following information.. it's not good:
Heath & Heather are owned by Hicks Muse Tate & Furst Inc.
Hicks Muse Tate & Furst Inc is an investment firm based in Texas that targets underperforming companies by purchasing them and assembling limited partnership investment pools.12 It owns Premier International Foods (via a Cayman Island based investment pool HMTF Premier13) which owns the herbal tea brands Heath & Heather, Lift and the London Fruit and Herb Company. Hicks Muse Tate & Furst is listed as one of the top 10 career patrons of George W Bush, having donated $290,400 prior to his victory in the 2000 US presidential elections.
I'm gonna see if I can find good alternatives, maybe even grow my own peppermint.
