Davis Food Co-op — Local services in Davis

Coop has changed and many of us long time members think not for the better, unfortunately. Coop no longer carries many of the natural not chemical infused products we sought out there.

Mostly vegan food but damn it smelled good. There were certainly a lot of the same "hippie" things like candles, glass bottles from spain that looked like an empty potion bottles, herbal remedies, and of course organic food everywhere. But let me tell you, i left with not only the bag i was after, but another insulated bag; both filled with delicious fresh cheeses, bread, duck liver pate, chocolate, juice and even a potion bottle LOL. I was impressed with all the product they had and the price was very fair. What a great place for people downtown to walk or bike to for their...
