you can get soy milk & soy yogurt in coop/migros, plus some delicorn veggie hot dog/schnietzel/nugget things (along with tofu) but not all of them are vegan, mostly ovo/lacto.



just recently discovered a great natural food store that sells all kinds of stuff, great flavored tofu, rice/almond/soy milk, agave syrup, seitan, soy cheese, etc on the rue des Eaux Vives. not sure of the exact name or number, but its just a few doors down from the migros (thinking somewhere like 25 rue des eaux vives or something) but basically if you follow the bus lines 6 or 2, pass the migros on your left & its right there on the same side of the street. I will be going there thursday around lunchtime so can get the exact address if you like. just email me before then if you haven't found it.

In Geneva there are two that I know of: one is near the Pont de Carouge on the Carouge side.... The other is opposite the street from the Manor on rue Cornavin near the train station- It's in an ugly building ... Bring money, especially to the first one mentioned.

Another place to go is Sartoriz or Sartoris in Ferney-Voltaire. It#s sort of near the market... There is one in Annemasse as well... Hope this helps.

hi - this is so helpful. Thanks! I think I'll try to go over there today since I'm in the neighborhood. If you want to do a review of the store though, I think that would be tremendously helpful to have it singled out on Glocals for future inquiries!! Otherwise, I might do one after I visit it. Thank you so much again!!

Try also the big pharmacies; they have health food products.

I mentioned 4 HF stores 8-). Which one are you referring to?
Marton R, Jul 1, 2008 @ 17:30

Thanks for the suggestion, Casuistik.



Talleyrand, I was actually replying to terri2028 and must have been writing when you posted. But really, I like Glocals a lot and being so new to Geneva, I find it very helpful when wondering where to find things. So, reviews in Glocals' "City Guide" about any and all of the health/natural food stores or suggestions would be a great thing!

Within Geneva another health food store I know is called Bio-Servette at the start of the route de Meyrin (022 733 8674). The one mentioned on the rue des Eaux-Vives is called Le marché de vie (022 735 4434).

The two Satoriz shops in France are also accessible by public transport if you don't have a car. For the shop in Ferney-voltaire (0033 450 407862) take the "F" bus from the station and for the one in Ambilly (0033 450 38 88 08) take the tram to the customs point "Moillesulaz" and then the bus 2.

These days, as mentioned, you also find a fairly good range of products in the supermarkets and special food section of Manor and Globus. Though I find it's worth ringing beforehand if it's something specific.

Happy food hunting!

Manor has Soy milk in 1L size from Soyana. It is bio organic. Made in the EU. It is CHF 3.20. If you can't find it ask.



As someone else mentioned, Co-op has Soy milk as well.



I am not sure about your other items.

There is also one on Boulevard Carl Vogt, same side as the TV, but almost down at the next traffic lights,

By the way...

My daughter drijnks and drank rice milk all the time and occasionally soy milk. We used to go to the Sunstores to buy it it was cheapest esp. with a courtesy card. And it was bio and the lot... Thart is just a little tip. They have a "rayon bio" with stuff that is a little cheaper than elsewhere...
