Guest guest Posted December 23, 2001 Report Share Posted December 23, 2001 Well...I don't know a whole lot about coop's either, just that we have one locally. I don't know how common they are. I do know that it is owned by the members, and you can buy a membership, which entitles you to 10% off your groceries. The one I visit is a full- service natural foods store, they have everything from produce, bulk foods to convenience foods and health products, all vegetarian and alot of them organic. You don't have to be a member to shop there, anyone can. Ours is listed in the yellow pages under Natural Foods or Health Foods, also under Grocers I think. Actually the original point I was really trying to make is that becoming vegetarian isn't cost prohibitive. I don't think I spend any more on groceries now than I ever did, in fact maybe less. anyone else have any thoughts on that? cheryll , " Megan Milligan " <yasminduran@l...> wrote: > I'm familiar with the term. coop is something like a farmer's market or local orchard right? > > Megan > - > nicole_messages > > Saturday, December 22, 2001 10:20 AM > finding coops > > > Cheryll wrote: > >>> > Might be better to seek a food-coop or natural foods store. > >>> > > OK.

Guest guest Posted December 23, 2001 Report Share Posted December 23, 2001 I agree. Before I stopped eating meat, i didn't want all the fat so I cost shopped around for the leanest & best cuts of meat & chicken (which cost more), but now that I"m vegetarian, I find myself spending a little less because I cut that out. A lot of meat substitutes are naturally lowfat anyway.
