Nowadays, an increasing number of Taiwanese are enjoying a thriving health and organic food scene, even as the variety of these products has become more diverse. The newly-opened Green Village has a juice bar that serves up a Vitality Energy Drink (NT$80), Beta Carotene Carrot Juice (NT$90), Fruit Yogurt Drink (NT$60), Beautifying Vegetable Juice (NT$80) and other drinks. There are also simple healthy meals, such as the Sunshine Sandwich (NT$50), Salad (NT$40), Whole Wheat Hand Roll (NT$40), Plum Vinegar Jelly (NT$20), Japanese Green Tea Jelly (NT$30) and other great choices. The owners here stress that everything on the menu is made from certified organic fruits and vegetables and is safe for your health. The Vitality Energy Drink contains over 20 different ingredients, including fresh organic vegetables, nuts, yeast (beer yeast) and vinegar. The taste is a mix of sweet and sour, and you can savor the texture of all the ingredients, too. There are also plenty of other organic products available, including the Avalon series of organic lavender facial skincare products, other health foods, and organic rice and spices.
