Oh, and the décor is very nice! I personally really like the Earl Grey Spring & Mulberry date-sweetened chocolate. Of course, the packaging is so pretty it's hard to separate that from the taste and texture, too .... The honeys here are like none other I've had before! The absolute cutest little honey bears I've ever seen! There's one raw honey in a glass jar that's the only chewy honey I've ever tasted -- what a treat to eat a spoonful of that plain, direct from the jar, mmm! (I didn't just eat it for the taste or texture, though -- I started to eat it because I'd read about the great health benefits of honey!) I really really enjoy the smokiness of the Russian Caravan. Plus, it's fun to research, read and find out about such things as how this rather unique tea flavour came about -- that it was the result of actual campfire smoke flavouring the tea in the first place while travelling across Russia way-back-when that is now encapsulated in this oh-so-tasty tea! Tea is a really great gateway to learning about various cultures and world history! Maybe it's his-tea-ry! Persian Rose Garden tea is splendid -- mellow and rich, smooth, calming (I'm not saying it's medicinally calming, but rather that it's evocative of a certain atmosphere that may make you feel a certain way if you tune into it.) Turmeric ginger is very nice, too .... Overall, aesthetically beautiful, palate-pleasing place! Highly recommended!

Took me a couple tries to find the place as I'm new to the area, but I'm so glad I did!…read more I love good vegetarian and vegan food, but I'm always nervous trying new natural restaurants. Sometimes they're amazing, sometimes it's just overpriced, painfully boring grains. I'm happy to report I found Good Natured in the first category! The seating area is smallish but cozy, with a beautiful display of veggies as a focal point. I tried the (faux) cheesesteak flatbread, and found it both pretty to look at and delicious. It came with a glorious side salad which was surpassed in beauty only by its flavor. I brought the rest of it home, but I will be back to try other options. It's all too rare that I have much to pick from. The waitress made me a raspberry tea that really hit the spot. Give them a try, but be open to different flavors. Not all substitutes taste like meat, but often are just as tasty in a different way. These guys bring the umami.

Their new store on Franklin Farm Lane is very neat, well-lit, and easily navigable. They carry a wide selection of foods for those on restricted diets like gluten-free, diary-free, and more. Both shelf-stable and refrigerated/frozen foods. Beware, it'll cost you a hefty amount for these foods! I feel this store carries a great selection, but their prices are too high. Some things here and there feel reasonable, but generally I can find the same items online from trusted sources for much cheaper. Sure, there may be shipping and a wait, but it's often worth it. I come here to browse sometimes, but have also relied upon it for homeopathic remedies. When my hubby cracked a rib, he wanted the homeopathic remedy to help speed healing. It was nice to go to this store and get it. They had it in stock, just what I wanted. Very convenient. It seems like The Nutrition Center is family-run, and I see two younger adults there sometimes which I tend to think might be the owner's children. I'm not sure just how knowledgeable these two are about the details for items they carry, but they seem friendly enough. Their website could use some regular care, they still have information about their grand opening from October of 2013 and it is now June of 2014. Perhaps adding in some information about new items, specials or sales, or educational information would spruce it up. Sadly though, it doesn't seem like they really run specials or sales. While I really do like knowing this store is close-by for times when I don't want to wait for something to come via mail, I find it too expensive to frequently shop here. I adore supporting local businesses, but I'm also not rich enough to spend that much money there when I can spend far less online. They've been around for a long time, so I guess some can afford it.

They have such a wide variety of products that I would be surprised if you went and found nothing to buy. Every time I come, the staff is always so kind and helpful. Any time I have questions, they're willing to help. I also appreciate how many lines they continuously keep on sale. I buy Life Extension supplements here, and they always have it 20% off of the regular retail prices you find anywhere else or online. I've noticed many of their other brands are also marked down. They are very competitive with online in my opinion. I would much rather shop here than find somewhere online because they're incredibly kind and have given me so much of their time and for that, I love supporting them.

A couple of minutes later - the same personable customer representative called me back and revealed that her manager had called the manufacturers of the product and she was able to answer my question with confidence.
