Suggestion Box

Q. Ezekial bagels… more please!

A. We do not carry Ezekial bagels. You may preorder a case and receive a 10% discount. They arrive frozen and can go straight to your freezer. Please speak with a grocery worker.

Q. Handing out samples is great, but it would be good if the plastic forks and spoons were recycled instead of thrown away.

A. We don’t have a place to recycle them. If you know of a place that recycles them, we’d love to hear about it.

Q. Please make meat sandwiches with bread like oat or rice flour.

A. Our deli is a vegetarian deli. There’s plenty to eat without eating meat.

Q. HABA, more pink palm candles?

A. We will get some with our next order. It may take a few weeks.

Q. Given the fact that the disabled community is growing, could you try not to go for more $$$, but consider people more? Board: Appoint a disabililty coordinator.

A. Our growth into this store marked a significant improvement in accessability over the Quail Street location. We are always open to suggestions to improve the shopping environment for all shoppers. Can you tell us more about what this person’s duties would be?

Q. Dear Coop, I am a vegan. This is the only place I feel comfortable shopping for food. Please, please, please don’t sell meat here. Thanks for your time. P.S. USDA is garbage.

A. We have a member referendum coming out this fall. Members should make sure their work hours are up to date and watch their mailboxes. Your input will be forwarded to the Board.

Q. Nature’s Path cereal — deceptive advertising — “evaporated cane juice” instead of labeling sugar.

A. Please visit the Nature’s Path website or call or write them to register your complaint. These companies do listen to the end use consumer: www.naturespath.com or Nature’s Path Foods, Inc., Blaine WA 90730.

Q. Would it be possible for you to accept WIC?

A. Sorry, we are not eligible to participate in WIC. We will reexamine the issue.

Q. Can we get a slicer for the cheese department? It would be a wonderful addition!

A. We have considered this option for our future reset. We’re always happy to use our existing equipment to slice small amounts at customer request.

Q. Mozzarella cheese shredded? Organic Valley packaged?

A. Please ask Gustav to order some. He will be happy to do it.

Q. We need a good source of clean meat and fish even more than gourmet cheeses! Make some space for it?

Q. If my Chinese doctor can prescribe meat as medicine, can’t Honest Weight embrace the idea? Good meat is healthy.

A. In our present configuration we offer farm direct poultry and meats on a special order basis. Depending on the results of the upcoming meat referendum, we will either maintain our current approach to meat or expand our in-store stock, hopefully accommodating all your protein needs.

Q. Whole grain unsliced bread?

A. Unsliced breads were not selling well and the bread companies are not offering it. Our deli offers unsliced bread.
