The Main Ingredient is a unique, healthy store with two locations. It is a gem packed full of items under one roof, offering an incredible assortment of natural foods. Customers can conveniently scoop as much or as little as they want from bulk barrels, baskets, and glass containers. The shop specializes in specially blended spices, rubs, herbs, and teas, along with fresh roasted coffee beans, infused Italian olive oils, balsamic vinegars, local honey, hot sauces, and gourmet jams. There is a big supply of amazing olive oils and balsamic. The store also features a wide selection of dietary-specific items including sugar free, dairy free, gluten free, keto, non-GMO, certified organic, vegan, and paleo foods. They offer smoothies, teas, and fresh boba tea made to order. The newest location hosts fun events and provides space for gatherings. Occasionally, they even sell fresh, local produce like Florida-raised vegetables. The owner is noted as being knowledgeable and kind. The outside may be unassuming, but inside is an incredible, healthy selection.
This is a very cool store and they have e things that you can not get at a grocery store. They have some really cool spices. This is a great place. We will definitely come back to it.

Love both locations. Gourmet olive oils, sauces, dips and teas! You can find it all under one roof. Plus there’s always fun events at the newest location. I’ve actually had a chance to utilize the space for Working Women of Tampa Bay events and it’s perfect!
