Looking for stores that sell organic and vegetarian foods in Bogota??!!!

Hey everyone,

I'm looking for a grocery store or somewhere that sells organic foods and things for vegetarians. Does anybody know of stores in Bogota?? I would really appreciate advice. I've found a few products in Exito and places like that but no meat substitute products!!

Thanks for the help!

I have the phone of the people who deliver to your home. The circle of people eating organic is not very big so some of the best produce are kept secret (well not secret really) I can give you phone number of the perosn with the best organic tomatoes, another one for the best tofu, another for the best embutidos(things like hamburguers, ham, sausages etc., one for soy mayo and medallones de muchacho vegetariano, and another for delivery of potatoes, onions, carrots and lettuce...PM me if you want them. It is very convenient for they take it to your house.

Serious question please don't laugh.

Why if one is going to be a vegetarian do they feel the need to make vegetarian replicas of meat. I mean I don't make little veggies out of livers or kidneys or ground beef.

I have tried some of the fake egg and some fake bacon-like substance and they were awful.
