Hello all! I’ve enjoyed reading the message boards here for some time now, and I’ve found the advice here extremely helpful and informative. I’m wondering if anyone here knows where I can find a restaurant that...

Raw milk sales are legal in California. You can get Organic Pastures brand at Whole Foods for $6 a half gallon, $12 a pint for the cream. I haven’t tried it since I eat very little dairy, but have friends who swear by it...

In Southern California, you can purchase Coconut Milk at Kosher Club (Pico near LaBrea), Elat Market, Pico Glatt Market (the one near Nagila Pizza), etc. What i haven’t found is light coconut milk. Or rice noodles (for Pad...

Southern California lactose free non-fat milk doesn’t taste moldy, maybe its a sign telling you that is time for you to move to the other coast. Link: http://www.indefatigable-indolence.org

Well, according to the site below, California produces 33 million gallons of ice milk a year. Where did it go? I think they mean low fat or non fat ice cream. I agree with you that these don’t taste the same as ice milk....

I’d also suggest doing a few searches here since your needs seem quite wide and sorry, a bit vague. Some topics like classics or old favorites, or look for OC (orange county) for specifics near Newport. The California board...

your favorite singular things, regional things, and you home chow them well enough where you are. But my bet is that in the United States, across the board, the best home chow is in CALIFORNIA. Maybe I shouldn’t say this,...

We went to the Milk Pail Market today as recommended earlier on this board, in search of Greek yogurt. They do indeed sell it, same brand as Dean and Delucca carries (Total), and a bit cheaper besides. It comes fat-free, two...

Crunchie bars (from reading other posts on the California board - they’re like gold down there in Ca) or any Cadbury bar that you can’t get here. Smarties? Of course the usual thing to say would be smoked meat, but we...

Really ... more people should. Make it public. Maybe it will inspire upgrades. A hospital food board? Yeah, but with outlaws like Melanie, next thing you know there will be searches at the door for contraband salt. Some nice...

I had a fantastic meal at Louie’s California Chinese Cuisine in the shadow of the Transamerica Building and had to post about it on Chowhound. It’s on Washington Street in Chinatown between Columbus Avenue and Kearny...

We will be visiting some close friends in Forest Hills and Albany in a little over a week. New York seems to have most things that are great to eat or drink, but there has to be some local stuff here in California (LA) that would...

to import the raw-milk version. Always was, but now it’s enforced, and the fines are very steep. Link: http://www.chowhound.com/california/boards/sanfrancisco/messages/188217.html
