You can find Vegan and Vegetarian foods, gluten free, even a few fresh vegetables in season. I always find new snacks to try, natural soaps and cleaning products, and I can always count on them to have our holiday Tofurky:) The prices are a little higher than I like to pay for groceries, but no other store in town carries a lot of the foods and I like supporting a locally run business. They have a customer card that you can use and after you buy a certain amount you get coupons for discounts on future purchases. I won't be doing all my shopping at JC Health, but for several items that are not available anywhere else, it's convenient and very cool to have our own health food store:)

There were a lot of good reviews on google as well about the products and the service. I love supporting small, local businesses and I highly recommend this place for vitamins, smoothies, all natural products, and vegan protein supplements.

It was a requested must for this year's Thanksgiving dinner. I called 16 stores in Columbia and wound up at this Clovers. I was SHOCKED when I checked out. 7 sweet potatoes cost $40!!! 7 freaking potatoes. Half that amount is too much. It's a potato, not cavier or steak. This is beyond comprehension. How dare they!! You WILL NEVER GET MY BUSINESS AGAIN! Your greed is disgusting!

The products themselves are a little on the pricier side but the quality is there and there isn't another store that I have ever been to that is quite like Clovers. For me it feels just like going to the local farmer's market except Clovers is opened 7 days a week! This local business is a real gem and even if you're a college student with minimal funds you should still visit and see what they have to offer instead of giving your money to some corporation that has no interest in your health or happiness!

This store has a lot of the brands I look for, but they often run out of items that I need,…read moreespecially in the produce section. There have been so many times that I had to ask where the bananas were, beets, etc. Overall I'm so glad this store exists, because it is the closest to Whole Foods so far here, although it's also nothing like WF. It would be nice if they opened a location in the Southwest of town because it's quite a drive, especially when there's no option to pick up. It is so expensive at Natural Grocers which I was absolutely shocked at, but I guess we have no choice other than to spend the money because Columbia doesn't have a lot of options for organic food. I at least appreciate that the store exists. A common misconception is that Natural Grocers is cheaper than Whole Foods. It's not. I used to shop at Whole Foods in my old town and it was significantly cheaper, more items to choose from, and they actually have a meat counter which is missing from Natural Grocers. I spend double the money when I'm here compared to WF. I miss the days where you can go get all your meats from one store. I cannot find good quality meats here, but they do have some chicken and ground beef options that's packaged. But even then, they run out of it. I miss having the options. Some other differences between NG and WF---- Whole Foods has an option where you can order from an app and pick up in the parking lot. NG doesn't have this option. WF has a smoothie and coffee bar, as well as a hot food bar. The amount of people dissing WF to me is just insane. This attachment to "the way things were" in the Midwest and limited thinking has got to be changed here in Columbia. One thing I appreciate about NG is that they do not use Apeel, which is a big problem in other stores. The one thing I REALLY do not like about this store is the amount of rude people who work the cashier register, especially to people who shop a large amount of groceries at once. I don't want to say all of them because some of them have been very nice. However, there was one African American lady who you could feel just hated her job and hated ringing me up and would make snarky comments to me. It was more than once and very clear she hated what she was doing there. I did not catch her name because it was hard to even be around her due to how uncomfortable she would make me. Another person named Sloan is always passive aggressive to me and other customers when ringing us up. Every time I get rung up by these people, they seem extra bothered and have a rude, standoffish demeanor about them. Their behavior was just strange, unacceptable and lame. Especially someone like me new to the Midwest, these types of people are the reason I don't find Midwesterners all that friendly. They are ruder than people from big cities. I get very anxious in the store because I don't want to deal with some of the rude cashiers. The rest have been decent and one of them was exceptionally kind to me, but I forget her name. Management should help these people understand that even if they're annoyed with their job, we are the ones spending an exorbitant amount of money to help the business and keep the lights on, and possibly even your job. I get it, work sucks. But it's not okay to be rude to customers or act like you're bothered when you're ringing someone up. It sucks to only have one store and one option in town to go to, to get organic food. Eating healthy shouldn't have to be this hard or complicated. But overall, I'm glad it exists because without it we would have nothing.

If you want to buy nutritional supplements, support a local grocery store, or eat more organic…read morefoods, Foods for Health is the place to go in Rolla. Tucked away in an inconspicuous strip center, Foods for Health has had surprisingly good business for many years considering it's Rolla and Wal-Mart is only half a mile down the road. That said, the products at Foods for Health might be twice the cost of what you'd pay at Wal-Mart but you'll be supporting a local business and buying products made by smaller and probably more socially responsible companies. Half of the store is groceries and nutritional supplements where you can find bulk-packaged dried beans, canned goods, cereals, nuts, dried fruit, flours, frozen foods, local eggs and cheese, vegan cheese and ice cream, and every possible health supplement you could want. The other half consists of books on health and diet issues, cosmetics, and toiletries. Foods for Health also provides massage services which I think you need to do by appointment. And if you're turned off by the higher prices, go there after Christmas when they have a 10% sale. They also accept SNAP benefits (food stamps).

I did my own research, then a staff member explained the differences in brands, and forms (i.e. drops vs. tablet) to help me make the best purchases. They also have a store brand of most vitamins/supplements that are the same as other store prices - but I don't have to worry about the ingredients. On Reward days, I bring my grandsons in to choose snacks for a park picnic. I can relax in knowing I am not going to have to say no due to it not being healthy. The bulk foods section in my personal favorite - for pennies I can try a new spice :) We shop at the other location on East Broadway most of the time, however, this Chapel Plaza store does have a larger selection. If Broadway doesn't have it but Chapel Plaza does, they will get it to you if you don't want to venture to the southwest part of town. I have been a Clovers shopper for forty some years and I always see new things every time I go.

The couple fruity flavored juices I did get were super tasty though. Nice recommendations. Hope they keep the pods in stock for the device I bought cause I'll be back.
