I have been spending too much time online looking for the best prices on Raw Nuts, oils, grains,seeds..etc.. I want to place an order in the next week or so..and was wondering if people could post their favorite sites for buying online.
Thanks so much.....

For seeds I use:
www.sproutpeople.com
For nuts I use:
www.nutsonline.com
I too was spending way too much time looking for the best deal. The sroutpeople are so informative. The nutsonline folks are great too!

I agree with Veganforlife, I use nutsonline.com also and they are great people to deal with. You can order from them early in the morning before business hours and they will ship the same day and email you your tracking number that evening.
Everything is fresh and shipped in zip-lock bags. :)

Be aware that their dried fruit is heat-dried. I e-mailed and asked. They really are great folks to deal with and fast, fast service! Cool!!! :D

Check out www.BulkFoods.com They have a fixed price of $4.95 for handling and no shipping on orders over $50. They have raw macadamias on sale right now!

That is a very good price on the macadamia's. The $4.95 is packing. There are different shipping prices - depending on where you live.

Thanks for the heads-up on the fruit Vaganforlife. I ordered dates from them. I guess I need to do a little more research before I order. :o

When you say it is heat dried..what do you mean? Things in an excalibur are "heat-dried" also.... Do they say at what temp. it is dried? Also..even "sun-dried" is "heat-dried." since the sun heats it up...
What, precisely does it mean? Does anyone know?
Thanks...

They told me it was oven-dried - not dehydrator dried. Dehydration is done at temps that do not destroy the enzymes. Oven drying is too high a temperature. Sun-dried is questionable. You should contact the company to find out for sure.
