It has been years since I have shopped in any of these and I was wondering if they have organic items that would make shopping there worth while? I tend to avoid conventional products...not completely, but I prefer organic. Thanks

We have had a Costco membership for 2 years and I don't recall ever seeing organic towels, bedding or clothing.

I was just checking out our local Costco last week. The only things organic I saw were spring salad mix, peanut butter and milk. However, I was a tight schedule that day and didn't get a chance to thoroughly look at everything. HTH!

The Costco by us has the milk (2% only)and peanut butter and it also has several frozen fruits and vegetables. On my last visit they had green beans, corn, mixed stir fry (didn't like those too well though), strawberry and banana combo, peaches, and maybe mangos. Sometimes they have frozen organic corn on the cob too. They also carry Cedarlane organic vegetarian frozen burritos. I buy boca burgers there too (which I don't think are orgainc, but might be something you buy). I have never seen snack stuff, cereals, baked goods, or juice that were organic. HTH!

I have never been to any of the stores you mentioned .. but if you have a foodlion near by they might be worth investigating. Our Local Foodlion has a rather large All organic Section right off from the Produce section. They have organic apples, oranges, lemons, letus, and other veggies. As well as having a wide slelection of meals and seeds and nuts. They have Organic Tofu, Breakfast Cereals, chips, honeys, meats, Veggie burgers.
I think there must be a lot of Heath concious people around. ( if your foodlion doesn't have a section like that then definately request one and have your friends who like those type items request them as well. )

Our Costco is amazing for that kind of stuff... they have three different kinds of o bread... odwalla o orange juice by the gallon... o blueberries, and strawberries in the freezer section... o peanut and sometimes almond butters... the o salad mix is always stocked there... o milk is always there... o chocolate milk in lunch box containers is always there... 100% fruit leathers are always there (not o but I do get them quite often)... no bedding towels or the like, but I don't bet that most stores even in our very crunchy area have them on hand. Those are mostly online items around here until you get up into the main part of Seattle.
