Bubbies Fermented Products:where to order Online?

post #1 of 11
Thread Starter 
While I know my own fermented veggies are best... does anyone know a good online source -Good Price & Good Shipping Costs of ordering BUBBIES Pure Kosher Dills, Pickled Green Tomatoes and Sauerkraut? I can't track down a local place that sells them. I'm looking for a good deal for buying by the case.
FYI From what I've read, their testing has shown the Tomatoes have the most beneficial bacteria count followed by the dills and then the sauerkraut (because the sauerkraut is now heated- not pasturized due to constant leaky jar issues).
Thanks for any help!

I don't know about online ordering, but I'm pretty sure I've seen there pickles at Whole Foods. Do you have a Whole Foods near you? If so, you could ask at the Customer Service desk if they could order the pickled tomatoes for you. They've ordered a Dr. Bronner's item for me before that they didn't sell in the store.

Nope, no Whole Foods by me. While I could ask places to stock the product for the future, I am interested in getting some now.

Anyone know of any good places/prices online?

They have green tomatoes too? I have never seen those!


I wish I could help you with an online source, if you find one post it for others!

So wait, the sauerkraut *isn't* pasteurized now? It used to be until very recently, right? Yea, the jars were leaky. I switched brands because I thought it was pasteurized... Yesterday I made my own kraut, we lurve sk!

I'm sorry; I don't know of an online source.

About the saurkraut, when I spoke with them last, the jars were heated, but still had some live stuff (just not as much as the dills) but the buckets (big buckets) were not. This may have changed since it's been over a year since I inquired, but if you're looking to buy in bulk, the bucket of 'kraut is the way to go!

This blog is where I read about the various Bubbies products that are raw, heat treated etc. The blogger posted a detailed response she got from Bubbies.

I found that my buying club selling Bubbies Pure Dill (not the Tomatoes though) by the case so I'm going to get them next time. I also tracked down a jar of the Sauerkraut (although as I mentioned, per Bubbies, it's not the best of their products in terms of level of bacteria.

I am still interested in finding the Tomatoes though is anyone knows an online source.

Are there products organic?

Shipping on a case is going to be really, really ugly. Have you looked at the distributor list on their website to find a more local source?

No, their products are not organic. I don't know of any brands that are like Bubbies though, organic or non-organic. When I do make my own I use organic produce though.
I found that through my food coop/buying club I can buy by the case so that's what I'm planning to do. I have to wait a few weeks until the next order though. The cost is a lot lower than what I saw online too, a lot lower and even with my club fees it's nothing compared to regular price and $ shipping charges. So, that's exciting....I live a wild life . I'm going to start with getting a case of the Kosher Dills (which are said to be of the highest microb activity anyway) and maybe sauerkraut too.
I'm also going to TRY to get myself in gear to do another batch of sauerkraut (having a newborn just slows you down).
