The Main Ingredient

The staff was so nice. They were very knowledgeable on the produces they offer and the various health benefits. Any time I'm in Tampa or surrounding area I will always stop in, as they have officially been placed on my favorites list. Oh and they ship too another added plus.

Wow, you really need to check out this incredible natural, healthy store. The have incredible natural teas. Healthy Bulk Food Bins Local Honey Nuts, Granola & Snacks Teas, Coffee Beans & Smoothies Infused Olive Oils Infused Balsamic Vinegars Spices & Rubs. Stopped in today to find something to help cold and flu like symptoms. I had the pleasure of meeting the owner, Christina Sweet. She is soknowledgeable and kind and helped me with a number of teas, herbs to treat my issues. The oils and balsamic vinegars are especially nice. The outside of the store will fool you, there is an incredible assortment of healthy items. The teas are so delicious, bulk or she will make you a big glass. Do yourself a favor and check it out.

This unique little shop has a variety of loose teas, fresh roasted coffee beans, spices, honey, olive oils, balsamic vinegars, and serves freshly made smoothies and boba teas. The staff is extremely knowledgeable and they will help you to sample oils, vinegars, teas, etc. This is a great way to shop local, use fresh local ingredients, and also put together awesome gift sets for friends, showers, or even a thoughtful hostess gift.

This is such a uniques gem, but it is in a low traffic area and not easily spotted from Collier Parkway and 54. They have a shop that is packed full of items. Lots of spices, gluten free items, big supply of amazing olive oils. tea, coffee and more. I just stopped there as there was a tent outside on Monday afternoon and was surprised that they were selling Florida Raised vegetables, meat, and seafood. I did a bundle package for $20 and got fresh green beans, potatoes , red pepper, cantaloupe, Fl. avocado, hydroponically grown butter lettuce, cucumbers and best of all 2 large tomatoes( that have not been refrigerated). Yummy!

The Main Ingredient is a cute little shop in the Lutz/Land 'O Lakes area that specializes in organic, bulk health foods. They've got an assortment of teas, locally roasted coffees, spices and herbs, olive oils, some bulk snacks and cooking ingredients. I can't shop for everything at Main Ingredient but there are definitely things I prioritize purchasing there. Nooch? Yep. Small amounts of herbs or cooking ingredients that I don't use a lot? You got it.The prices at Main Ingredient aren't any cheaper than corporate grocery stores, at least that I've noticed, but I love the personalized attention. Every time I've been in the person working has struck up a conversation about what I am seeking. They can show me exactly where it is. If they don't have it, they will recommend another place, usually locally owned, where I can find it.

Great selection of loose tea, pickles, spices, honey, elderberry, and much more. Staff is knowledgeable and will let you try anything including the olive oils and balsamic.

What a great and unique place to purchase healthy, organic and pure ingredients. They have a fabulous selection of olive oils, tea and coffee, seasonings and healthy foods. All Natural, Certified Organic, Gluten Free, Non- GMO, Fitness Friendly, Vegan, Paleo and Keto. They have all of these things. The staff is extremely knowledgeable and helpful. I use their dressing daily on my salads. As expected it's a bit more expensive but absolutely worth it to put quality ingredients in your body. There's a parking lot right in front of the store.

This is a great local gem. They have so many locally made and sourced products and the staff is very knowledgeable and always willing to help. They have THE BEST PICKLES!!! They are locally made in florida and delicious. They come in many flavors and are crisp and amazing. If you enjoy a pickle, these are a must. They also have numerous varieties of spices, spice mixes, and teas that can be bought is large or small quantities. I also like to purchase locally made jams and jellies here. They have many flavors and can be put together to make gifts baskets/bags. I have bought blackberry bourbon flavored jelly and guava jam both made locally. If you are looking to support the local economy and give a delicious gift, this is the place to visit.

I stopped by a couple weeks ago and had one of their teas (I believe the hazelnut one) and it was delicious. All their flavors looks delicious and I would have gotten some loose leaf but they were a little more than where I usually get my tea. They had an amazing selection of different things like oils, coffee, spices, etc. will definitely be back to try a new tea flavor.

I cannot believe the Golden Flower Power tea and how it affected my Covid. Two days after starting it, I was back in the pool swimming laps. I tested positive, started using GFP tea, and was. over symptoms. My wife is also reporting great results with her allergies. win/win
