This takes the mystery out of making fermented veggies. You can order the Pro-Belly-Otic juices here. If you don't like the natural mild sourness of fermented foods, try mixing in some sweet white corn when you serve it. It's delicious. Whole Foods sells a bag of organic frozen sweet white corn for only $2.29 for one pound.

MOM's Organic Market in Alexandria, VA
MOM's in Alexandria is helping keep clear, blue, skies. They buy 100% of their electricity from renewable sources.

If you haven't been to MOM's Organic Market, you really should check them out. This store just keeps getting better and better. The store's buyers have continued to find hard to find items in many product categories. The nutritional supplement selection is outstanding. They have one of the better "grab a healthy meal" selections you'll find, in the refrigerated cases, including  yummy vegetarian and vegan sandwiches. They are carrying full vegetarian meals made by The Vegetable Garden in Rockville, and the prices are only about $6-7 for a huge serving.

Their selection of pet foods with only "human grade" ingredients is outstanding, much better than other health food stores and about as good as the best small specialty pet supply stores. Their bulk foods are a great way to get the best value in a time when everyone wants good value. Plus, bulk foods are a great way to buy a small quantity of something to see if you like it or not.

MOM's tend to have newer products that you might not see elsewhere: things like veggie burgers made from rice (for folks that don't want soy), or non-dairy creamer made from almonds. If you, or your child, are on a very restrictive diet, you may find some welcome additions to your diet.

This is a really fun place to shop. Check them out.
