Best sources for buying organic foods (nuts, seeds, spices, etc.) in bulk online – any hidden gems?
2 weeks ago (edited)
I’ve recently been searching for providers that sell high-quality organic foods such as nuts, seeds or spices in bulk packages.
Of course, I quickly came across Koro, but I also discovered Foodoh, which actually beats Koro on price even if the selection isn’t as big.
Does anyone have hidden gems, go-to sites, or other trustworthy providers for buying in bulk that you can recommend?

Any insider tips from you besides Koro?

Would love to hear where you shop for organic bulk goods like nuts, seeds, and spices 🙏
Sorry, I have no "hidden gem" at hand. I try to buy everything in regular stores and are happy if I don't have to order another item online. So I shop the listed items at the usual: DM, Rossmann, Müller. Especially the bigger stores have huge organic food shelves these days. And some organic supermarkets like Alnatura of course (not the sheapest, but great selection).
Hey.
I used to buy nuts and seeds in bulk directly from distributors or suppliers for my business, but not organic in that case (Farmer's Snack). You can usually find these by just checking out the packaging of the product you are looking for in a retail store and contact the distributor.
For personal use I don't use bulk products, esp. nuts and seeds due to the issue of lipidoxidation: Fats, esp. polyunsaturated fats, tend to react with oxygen, heat and light and produce problematic compounds like peroxides.
