Where do you shop? best places for raw foodists besides farmers markets

[Guest guest]

I would love to know what places in the Seattle/tacoma area have the

best selection of things for the raw foodist.

Where do you like to shop?

Thanks

[Guest guest]

I like Madison Market on Capitol Hill - on Madison and 17th, I believe. They

have quite a few prepared raw foods and snack items.

This pretty much covers the places I've bought food in the last year.

 

What is unique about Marlene's Market is that all of the bulk nuts and seeds are

in a walk-in refrigerator. This is the only place I've seen them go to this

extent to preserve the quality of the bulk foods. It is also the only place

where I've had good luck in getting non-rancid nuts and seeds. The main

wholesalers refrigerate the nuts and seeds, and then they sit on warm shelves

for maybe months at most stores, and so of course, the oil in most of them

starts going rancid.

May your day be filled with clarity, grace, progress, and warm laughter,

YES! I noticed that about Marlenes Market the walk in cooler for

the nuts and things is a fabulous idea. The federal way store is

bigger and has more raw food items but i was wondering about the

prepared raw foods like the place on capitol hill....i have to check

that one out....thanks for all the links.

Does Central market and PCC have many raw food items?

[Guest guest]

Central Market carries Lara Bars, which claim to be raw, but that's all in the

prepared food realm. They're better for their wide selection organics, and even

wider selection of non-organic tropical and hard to find fruits. One of the

produce guys at the Shoreline store is a hoot as well!

(They're all nice, though.)

 

Four of the local PCCs (View Ridge, Fremont, Issaquah and another, which I

cannot remember!) carry the raw Carrot Cakes from Chaco Canyon Cafe.

 

For prepared food I actually recommend taking a ferry over to Port Townsend for

the day! The Food Co-op always has raw and living foods in their deli! From

inventive salads to tasty desserts, my (non-raw) boyfriend and I always eat just

a little too much when we head over. It's a fun town to kick around in too!

-Thats very interesting about Port Townsend I had no idea they were

that supportive of raw foodists. I think i will pay them a visit

and check things out....i have been thinking about moving and i

would love to live somewhere that had a deli with raw food takeout

for days when i just dont feel like making anything.

 

I have been to pot townsend before but i didnt see the food co-op

thanks alot for the suggestion.

There are two raw food take outs on Maui, if you're interested in moving!

 

Shari - who wishes she was on Maui somedays

[Guest guest]

They also have a raw foods spa! Spruce has talked of having retreats there

in the past. It's called Annapurna.

 

It's a fabulous day trip tp head over there. There are a couple of different

style (all rocky) beanches there to comb over as well!

 

And toni, if you make it to Chaco Canyon Cafe during the week in the evening, be

sure to say hello! I am the tall fat girl, and I LOVE talking with all of the

traveling raw foodists.

 

Much love and fun,

 

Heather/starrrie

Honestly I thought about moving to Hawaii but the thing that stopped me

was the expense of moving my car...like $1000 to ship it. So.... i

think thats not going to happen anytime soon LOL!
