Healthy Options

Health Food Store - Edit

Posted by RandyC_JtS on 05 Jan 2014.

This can be summed up as a small (very small) version of a health food store/co-op that you would typically see in the US.

There is no fresh produce, no fresh or prepared food. Only prepackaged items. One location has limited bulk (but I've been told they are discontinuing), and none of the Davao locations have any frozen.

So a lot of vitamins, personal care and packaged health foods that (for the most part) you can't find any where else here.

The prices are just about exactly twice what you would pay for the same item in the US at full retail. So they are EXTREMELY high priced.

I still go there once a week, but the items I buy are very limited. I can't afford to buy many of these items, so I choose to make them myself - hummus, salsa, granola.

Cons: Really high prices, Stock is slow to replenish, Limited selection

Not many options for vegetarians in Davao City. This place has food . . . no adjectives . . . it's vegetarian food . . . lots of meat substitutes available to cater to filipinos cravings for the taste of flesh. Soups are OK. Small portions. Expensive for the Philippines

Pros: someplace to eat

Cons: small portions, comparatively high prices, boring food
