Buying health food in Apia & Salelologa

Hi you Samoa experts, I have a few food shopping questions.

Q1: Is it possible to buy whole meal/whole grain bread ?

Q 2: Is there anywhere that sells wholefoods such as brown rice, wholegrain/bran brekky cerial, yoghurt?

Q4: Are there any restaurants specialising in Veggo food ?

Q 5: What kind of foodstuffs CAN"T you get in Savai'i that you CAN get in Upulo?

Thanks

Not as difficult as you might assume.

Q1: Wholegrain bread: Yes, there is, but only in Apia. Lynn's store at Motoutua is the most reliable place to get fresh Kibbled Rye bread. Try Lucky Foodtown as well.

Q2: Wholefood for brekky: At least Wheatbix are very common everywhere, even in Savaii. At Lynn's and especially Lucky Foodtown you will find a wider variety, i.e. Sanitarium muesli, and even yogurt, soy/rice milk and other health food items. Farmer Joe's supermarket (Apia) has some too.

Q4 (no Q3 ;-)): Vegetarian restaurant? I heard about one at the Flea Market in Savalalo/Apia CBD, but I have never tried. Most restaurants have vegetarian dishes. Even though I never met a Samoan vegetarian, there are enough tourists with that demand.

Q5: No fresh wholemeal bread in Savaii. I'm not sure about yogurt.

Eat Samoan food, i.e. Palusami, Taro, Yam, all with coconut cream. Delicious and very vegetarian.

Thanks for that!

PS found heaps of good health & gourmet food & range of grain & wholemeal breads in Lucky Foodtown. Brown rice in Farmer Joes.
