| - I have a love/non love relationship with True Food.
As a former vegan, I loved it. As an omnivore looking for really superior animal and plant based ingredients, it's OK. My desires are gluten free, grain free usually, grass fed / wild caught, and organic. They match up somewhat on these but they're not perfect, in my opinion, but then again, I'm very picky.
The bison and beef steak are supposedly grass fed, yay, but I'm unclear on their cooking oils and salad dressing oils because I get mixed answers when I inquire. They have wonderful salads for the most part, but then again, their oils in the dressings are suspect.
Their salmon is not technically farmed but not really wild caught either. It's like a hybrid which I find frustrating. They pride themselves on using dairy that is hormone and antibiotic free but when I asked about the cream for the organic coffee which the coffee is wonderful, it's just conventional cream. I expect it to be organic from a place like this.
That all being said, the foods are usually very yummy. The desserts are great although I don't usually order them anymore. The service is almost always great. If they would source true wild caught fish and stick to organic olive oil for dressings, I'd be a much bigger fan and they'd get more of my business.
