| A type of store that depending on its focus is like a drugstore or a grocery store where the emphasis is on natural foods, drugs and cosmetics. Usually there are lots of organic vegetables, bulk bins filled with whole grains, lots of tofu, tempeh, and seitan. Also natural shampoos, soaps, cosmetics, household cleaning products. Some choose to carry organic meat.
The natural foods store I shop in is also a co-op which means we're members who work in the store and receive discounts as well as feeling like we're part of something bigger than ourselves. |
