January 2012:

A Sampler of recent suggestions of general interest ... and our answers:

I think it's wonderful you carry Goat's Milk Yogurt, but you only carried goat's milk for one week. The powdered stuff really isn't that great. Could you please carry goat's milk again?

We did carry it for over a month, but ended up throwing out 20 of the 24 containers because they didn't sell before the expiration date.

What is the cost for a paper bag? I want to inform my tenant why he should use a cloth bag. Please email me at (unreadable)

No cost to you (except as a member owner), but about 9 1/2 cents to us - and you get 10 cents off when you bring in your own bag. Sorry, I can't read your email address - so I hope you get your answer here.

Thanks for carrying the Batch ice cream! Serious YUM!

You are welcome - and it's made right here in Jamaica Plain. We also have a new local cookie - A.k.a. Marvelicious - and the name says it all…

Please clarify re: Nutritional Yeast. Does the Red Star (in bulk) have B-12? If not, can we order the nutritional support formula that vegans rely on for b12?

Yes, we checked the package and it does have B12 - when we remade the signs, that was left off - We have the correct ingredients back on the sign.

Thanks! I'm concerned about buying organic food - Is it really organic?

 The simple answer is yes. We constantly work on keeping the standards strict. The more complicated answer? The program is good, but flawed in many ways. Trusting foreign certification is just one issue. We do continue to work to tighten up the regulations and enforcement. .Here is a link that will give you some USDA information
