Love their dried red and green bell peppers
Mia S.

Juan and Melton took such great care of me my last visit. They are patient and helpful in locating, weighing and packaging everything I've come for that is in stock. This is becoming my favorite store in all of Alameda County. My go to for my herbs as I'm still building my Apothecary and almost complete. I'll still use them for restocks. They have so many herbs from A-Z. It's a privilege to be able to drive and get in person. I'm hearing from other fellow herbalists their areas do not have a store like mine. I've started bringing my own Mason Jars or purchase their 9 oz jars if additional are needed. I usually call ahead of time to see what's in stock and prepare for what I need to bring. Thank you so much Juan and Melton for going above and beyond to help me. See you soon!!

Different spices I purchased.

When you need spices, this is the place to go to. Rather than spending a few dollars if not more for one spice jar at the supermarket, you can come here and determine how little or how much of spices you need. If you have a recipe that calls for a spice that you never use or seldom use you can just get the amount that you need. How easy is that? The service is really good there. The staff is very accommodating. They've been around since 1933.

Was looking for probiotics and some cleansing tea and found that and more here. They have everything from peanut butter to pack it yourself charcoal. Everyone was willing to help and was friendly. A good neighborhood supplement store.

Bag of bite minus a few I ate already!

Oh Food Mill how I love your baked bars. Years ago, a friend introduced me to the date nut bar from here. Luckily they were also sold at the old Rite Aid on Broadway which satisfied my cravings but this is long gone. Now, whenever my travels take me down 580, I make a special stop for the bars. Today, they had this generous bags of bits for $3.29 which is the same price as the bagged cookies and bars. I consider this a deal as there are multiple flavors in here in addition to the date nut. There is oatmeal and honey too. I love the spiciness and softness of these cookies. And, they are a local natural food store in Oakland. They have their own parking and the staff is very friendly and nice. Please support the local businesses.

Soybeans in the back, great price for organic soybeans!

Because of COVID I've acquired some new hobbies to stay inspired. Running out of things to do Homemade tofu? Sure, sounds new. Bought a tofu press but needed beans, Berkeley Bowl had a line too long I deemed. Yelp directed me to the Food Mill instead, So I turned around and to there I head. Small line, but they take COVID seriously the wait flew by quite mysteriously. Inside, my god, so many healthy snacks and of course TONS of bulk bins in the back. Got my beans, but couldn't help myself, a healthy assortment adorned each shelf. Got their famous cookie bar and promptly enjoyed it in the car.

Bulk grains reasonably priced for gluten-free oats.

Seems like they post their weekly menus on their website, so you can kind of get a sense of what type of meals you might get. So if you're looking to get a better sense of what may be in your 'bag', then I recommend looking there first! Pickup was quick. Someone noticed me standing by the door and after letting them know I was there to pick up a Too Good to Go order, he got my boxes really quickly. The meal I ended up getting was a turkley bolognese pasta with some steamed broccoli. Very simplistic dish that tasty alright. For this specific meal, I'm not sure I would so inclined to pay full price for the meal prep since it is cheaper and very easy to make this at home. That said, I can see the appeal for those who are just too busy overall and want fast, healthy meals without having to cook. Overall, glad to have tried another local establishment. Would recommend trying this on 2G2G first if you're not sure you'll like the food.
