Hi,
I am an American expat in France. I am having a very hard time getting my usual health food ingredients here, such as quinoa, chickpea flour, nut butters, or flax seed.... Does anyone have a good French website for this, or can recommend a good shop in Paris?
Thank you so much,
Nina
Quinoa is starting to appear in the "bio" section of some of the big hypermarkets, like Carrefour and Auchan. You could also check around for a Bio-coop store. These are starting to pop up in the Paris area and while not exactly health-food stores, they do seem to carry many of the products you would expect to find at a health food store.
Cheers,
Bev
