"the original was a food co-op; started in the 1960's for the enlightened who wanted organic, unprocessed whole food....what a concept!\n\n(btw...did you know the average american eats 10 lbs. of food additives per year? and collectively, our households dump about a million tons - 70% of the total - of non-biodegradable pollutants into the water & air; think laundry detergents, shampoo, soaps, cleansers, fabric softeners, household cleaners, aerosols, exhaust...)\n\nanyway...today's strawberry fields is just as cool - lots of fresh veggies, yummy seeded breads (and other breads), home-made soups...yum! i had some emergency surgery at Carle 3 years ago, and my son brought me strawberry fields home-made veggie soup & seeded bread to help speed my recovery after i got out... not that you have to be sick to enjoy this food...lol!\n\n...now with the added benefit of the healthy meals section where you can get smoothies, soups, sandwiches, salads & all manner of healthy stuff to eat & drink, sit & chat - inside or out in clement weather. a great place to meet friends, chat, & have a bite.\n\n\"strawberry fields forever...\" (move over Wild Oats & Whole Foods)"^^ .
