Anybody notice the increasing number of organic Costco products on the
shelves?

No, but I've only been there once in the past year. They sell such large
quantities of things, there isn't much I can buy there.

Yes, and at Sam's Club too.

They now sell Flax cereal and organic ketchup and quite a few other organic
items. Perhaps they are finally beginning to get the buzz that places like
Whole Foods and Trader Joes are booming.

Julie, find someone to split with. If you can't use 6 of something,
maybe you can get someone to take 3 or 4 of them... Maybe even a
buying group so that everyone saves... Smile

I don't know anyone who eats the same stuff that I do. And because of our
food allergies, there isn't much I can buy there. Some of the things like
boxes of cereal are far too large to fit in our cupboards. Plus for the
produce, we wouldn't need much. I already get a box of organic produce each
week.

Have you tried the flax cereal? Is it a flake, a grind? And how's the
taste? Texture?
