Our local food co-op has been around, in one form or another, since the early 70's. Finally yesterday I joined. Nothing slow about me! I really am looking forward to finding a few more foods that I can eat, just by the fact that fewer ingredients means lower odds of having an allergen in the product.
They serve meals there and have a divine salad bar. I can eat the honey-mustard dressing they make because they stay away from high fructose corn syrup. This will be great for when I need lunch on errand days. I have eaten the chicken they prepare and haven't tasted anything that good since the "olden days" when I was a kid and nobody added hormones or antibiotics to their poultry.
They were so gracious, too, making sure I had all my questions answered and telling me how pleased they are that I belong. The price was right, too.
Yes, I see a long, happy relationship.
I too have food allergies and am exiled from eating anywhere except my home. I wish I could find a good place like you have to eat.
