This Jumbo epitomizes the American phrase "If we don't have it, you don't need it". I was in…read moreSantiago on business, and I will often visit local grocery stores to pickup pre-made sandwiches and snacks. However, I was amazed at the wealth of fresh items in this huge store. I wish I had booked an accommodation with a proper kitchen so that I could pick up some fresh seafood. As a consolation prize, I purchased the freshly prepared paella. It was outstanding!

Now just need more instant meals!!! -------- I love this Jumbo, I'm living and working remote in Chile for a little while and definitely this is the best option for a variety of imported products. The store is extremely clean and they have a great selection of American imported products under the brand American Classic. I tried a bunch of products under the brand and it tastes like home! That being said - there's a huge void for instant American meals. You'll be hard pressed to find instant oatmeal with brown sugar in individual sachets -- actually anything instant is a bit harder to find in Chile in general, even instant rice. I think I'm just too used to the convenience and plethora of on-the-go US product offerings but after going to a bunch of stores to see the options, this one is my fav and hits closest to Also if you're an avid Braggs Apple Cider Vinegar fan like I am - you won't find that anywhere in Chile either so make sure to pack your own before your trip! The only other negative is that you can't sign up for the points program as a foreigner it's only for Chileans. That was a bummer! I wanted to earn point because I definitely plan on shopping there a lot! Awesome bonus to this location - it is attached to the mall, it's a huge plus if you like the all in one experience. You never find large supermarkets in the malls in the US. You can go have a cup of coffee, do some clothes shopping, and pick up groceries on the way out. Win win win.

It is virtually impossible to find all natural organic products in Santiago, this is why I love…read morePunto Saludable. It is one of the only small shops that has things like organic quinoa, maki, coconut oil, and lots of all natural cosmetics. They also have coconut water, all natural yogurts, and a wide assortment of healthy snacks. Punto Saludable reminds me a lot of all the health food stores I miss back home. The only downside is that it is super super super expensive. It is great if you go in once or twice a month to stock up on quinoa or other things for your pantry, but watch out cause it is really easy to go overboard and over your budget. However it is small and locally owned so at least you can feel good about buying sustainably and supporting the community.

Although there are a couple of other organic/veggie stores close by Punto Saludable differentiates themselves by packing their small store with more than the average organic nuts, tofu and fruit selection of many. They offer gluten/dairy/soy free rice pasta, as well as lasagna sheets ($3590 CLP for a large box). They also sell gluten free rice and flax bread! They have 2 kinds fresh tofu, huevos de campo/free range eggs and sell all natural Pucara (local Chilean farm) yogurt for 2.000 per liter (seriously cheap!), along with pajaritos (the mother) to make your own yogurt at home. They also have natural food grade oils such as the all-purpose coconut oil. They also sell unsweetened (boxed) almond milk for 3 mil/liter. The best part is, from what I've seen, they are about half the price of other health food stores like Planta Maestra. The owners are super nice and friendly and will help you with answering questions and finding what you need. They even have a suggestion book for things they should carry!

As near as I could tell, vendors only accept cash.
