I don’t buy kombucha but I’m vegan and since Amazon bought it the quality and diversity of the products i used to get has gone down, luckily local supermarket chains seem to have noticed and started to get more variety of those products since.

I like Whole Foods but a good number of the vegan products I buy are available cheaper at Target now, esp frozen. So I make the rounds... Safeway, Sprouts, a local gourmet shop, etc.

I don’t like what Amazon has done to the selection, and they seem out of things more often these days. Guessing it’s a mix of supply chain issues and contractual sourcing pressure that keeps some products out of stock because Amazon is very selective on product mix, pricing and delivery volumes. When you ask in the stores, they never seem to know. Peculiarly, they’ve been out of dry chickpeas a lot, recently.

The stores can be very different from location to location. The Park City store looks nice but is horrible. Sedona, Reno and Lafayette are great, IMO. Etc.
