amberino21 Posted September 20, 2013 Share Posted September 20, 2013 thanks! I will still probably leave it on the shelf...I can't say i'm a huge fan, and the price makes me want it even less! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although I eat it like a naughty treat so it's probably not a bad thing to go without for a few weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
praxisproject Posted October 13, 2013 Share Posted October 13, 2013 NazzaB - I think they're replacing the Xylitol with Stevia now, but nice to not have any sweeteners. I really don't think it needs it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
praxisproject Posted October 24, 2013 Share Posted October 24, 2013 For anyone who travels through Melbourne near Flinders St station, there is an organics store there now called Habib Wholefoods. Bit expensive, some things are vegan/soy/sugary/agave but lots of organic things, including Mojo Komboucha, meat and dairy (if you can have it). [Edit: pass on the non-chicken meat, although it's organic, the red meat is ALL grain fed Things I buy from Habib's: Isola Bio Coconut Cream in a tiny (expensive) 200ml mini-tetra pack http://www.bio4you.eu/en/toiduained/1070-coconut-cream-200g-isola-bio.html - beware the similar looking Isola Coconut Rice drink which comes in a larger size, it's not the same product but the box looks very similar. This one thickens up USA-style in the fridge! (as it has guar gum in it) Perfect for using as a fluffy "whipped cream" - but I actually buy it because it's a sealed portable coconut serve I can keep in my bag for coffee in cafes - 100ml is about a serve for me, so I use half and then put the leftover half in the fridge. It's hard to pour if cold (need to squeeze it out like toothpaste), so don't fridge it before you open it unless you want whipped cream. Loving Earth products - very expensive, but good if you're caught short. Mojo Komboucha Organic veggies - watch the labels, not everything fresh is organic, the berries rarely are.The odd gluten-free treat, but most of these have too many dates/sugars for me.Avoid: Most of the fresh salads are gluten free, but almost all of them contain soy, tofu, sugars and either beans or pseudo-grains. There also are many complaints that the salads are v expensive by weight (they're all pretty heavy/wet salads, not light ones). The stocking levels are strange in this store, don't wait to buy something, if it runs out, it may be gone for weeks. ] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
praxisproject Posted November 10, 2013 Share Posted November 10, 2013 For anyone looking for a good zuccini noodle spiraliser, you can get them from Prahran Health Foods, the Paderno model which seems very popular in paleo circles. It's the only stockist I've been able to find in Melbourne which actually has stock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
melbournegirl Posted November 10, 2013 Share Posted November 10, 2013 I always go there when I am in the city... I must check out the kombucha, is it expensive? What happens to the coconut cream after a few days with the probiotic? Does it get tangy? Change texture? Or! I'm interested but I don't think I can tolerate much coconut cream and may not want a reason to eat more, then again maybe the probiotic makes it easier to digest.... Struggling right now and can't figure if its the cauli rice, cashews or too much protein..... Aarg. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
praxisproject Posted November 11, 2013 Share Posted November 11, 2013 I think it's the most expensive Mojo I've seen, but I haven't seen it many places and it's the only place I've seen in the CBD with it. It's called Bio whatever but there's no probiotic in it I don't think, just the guar thickens up in the fridge. Doesn't get think outside the fridge unopened. It's not as heavy as Ayam Coconut Cream, much less fibre I think. Can you swap for another nut? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
praxisproject Posted November 18, 2013 Share Posted November 18, 2013 Price check: Mojo is $5.95 a bottle at Habib's Wholefoods. I think it is $4.50 at GoVita, from memory. Anyone in Melbourne getting organic stuff delivered? I'm trialling a few different suppliers as my local Coles has suddenly stopped stocking almost everything organic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amberino21 Posted November 18, 2013 Share Posted November 18, 2013 besides a few things in the "health" food aisle, our coles only has organic beef, beetroot, carrot and apples and eggs. besides the beef, all ridiculously expensive so I don't even bother! I wish they were better - woollies has a better range I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
praxisproject Posted November 18, 2013 Share Posted November 18, 2013 Our local woolies is terrible, barely has any vegetables (bakery section is 4 times the size of the veggies!) Our coles still has King Island beef, but my organic chicken has gone and the organic veggie section now seems to just be dates, carrots (sometimes) and white potatoes We seem to have retained organic eggs though. On the plus side a bunch of places now deliver to me who didn't used to: Victoria Organic Delivery & Organic Angels. Both have lovely organic berries.

praxisproject Posted November 20, 2013 Share Posted November 20, 2013 Pretty sure it's grass fed, Kind Island specialise in grass fed on their island. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zoodles Posted November 23, 2013 Share Posted November 23, 2013 Was just at Harris Farm, they have fillets of wild boar and venison now! Apparently they have "minimal human handling"… wasn't really clear if it was actually wild or not, but might be interesting to try one day! Definitely a treat at $13 for one (200g) fillet!

praxisproject Posted November 24, 2013 Share Posted November 24, 2013 Price check: Mojo is $4.50 at Organic Food and Wine Deli (Degraves St). Pretty much everything else there has grains, beans or vegetable oil. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JafaGirl Posted February 6, 2014 Share Posted February 6, 2014 Lesley, I haven't been able to find any compliant Coconut Aminos other than the Banaban aminos online from The Coconut Shop - everywhere I have looked there has only been the Niulife brand which is non-compliant (coconut sugar etc.) Really frustrating! Though if you're anywhere near Granville, The Coconut Shop has a store there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
