Food Conspiracy

I just found something that I am very excited to try: The Food Conspiracy! I know, it sounds like some weird eco-thriller, but in reality, it is a local grocery store/co-op here in Tucson. Why haven't I heard of this place before?

The Food Conspiracy, according to their website, "is a natural foods market, cooperatively owned by its members and open to the public. Since 1971 we have been committed to providing the highest quality natural and organic foods and products to the Tucson community. Our produce department is entirely organic, and we don’t carry any products known to contain genetically-modified organisms (GMOs). We are committed to offering certified organic products whenever we have a choice, and we have the most extensive bulk selection in town. In alignment with our commitment to environmentalism, social justice, and education, we are constantly expanding our line of local, fair trade, and independently produced items."

How cool is that?!? This is exactly the type of place I've been looking for, but I was unaware we had anything like this in Tucson. I'm planning on checking this place out later today. I love the fact that it's a co-op, but it's open to the public, so you can really shop there before becoming a member. I hope they have some great local chicken, since it seems that my normal grocery store has phased out the stuff from California, and now sells mainly Tyson chicken (which I stopped buying years ago).

I can't wait to check it out!
