It seems like all of a sudden, being eco-friendly is the new fashion statement. Are we destined to become tie-die and hemp wearing, granola eating, prius driving, smelly hippies? Well perhaps not. What if there were a set a bed sheets, so soft and yet durable that I could recommend them regardless of their enviromental footprint?Bamboo, at least in theory, is an eco-friendly product because it grows extremely quickly, with less resources than cotton. Bamboo does not require pesticides and can even be more durable than cotton. Bamboo even has anti-bacterial properties.
With all this in mind, I highly recommend picking up a set of Bamboo Sheets from your local Target. These sheets are a 60-40 cotton-bamboo blend. They are incredibly soft, don't stain like jersey cotton and have the previously explained enviromental benefits.
The softness and durability really caught me off guard, and at an extremely reasonable price of $29.99-59.99 are a great deal. These sheets are available in 5 different colors.

A soldier meets a pirate in a bar, and the talk turns to their adventures. The soldier notes that the pirate has a peg leg, a hook and an eye patch.
"How did you end up with a peg leg?" he asks.
The pirate replies, "I was swept overboard into a school of sharks. As my men were pulling me out, a shark bit my leg off."
"Wow!" says the soldier. "What about your hook?"
"Well," answers the pirate, "we were boarding a ship when one of the enemy hacked off my hand."
"Incredible. How’d you get the eye patch?"
"A grapefruit squirted in my eye," the pirate replies.
"You lost your eye to grapefruit juice?"
"Well," says the pirate, "it was my first day with the new hook."
