A must add to your daily lives place! The owner, Christina Sweet, is so knowledgeable about good health. I’d rather put good things into my body even if they taste bad then any medication. I send my clients at Florida Power Yoga to her daily to hell with issue using the many holistic things in her store. The number on thing I send people to her is for low iron. No one wants to take Iron pills that bind you up. She has Beet Powder that not only Beef’s up iron levels. It boosts vitality so why would you not want that over a pill. There are amazing teas, olive oils, gift baskets, natural protein powders and all sorts of things we need to stay healthy. Prevention trumps cure all the time.

Great local shop with lots of cooking related stuff. Not kitchen stuff, no pots and pans and specialty gadgets. Alot of flavored olive oils, flavored balsamic vinegar, custom blended spices, coffee, flour, nuts, year, and on and on. Very helpful staff. Super friendly. Highly recommend a stop in here.

Love the variety of spices, teas, and olive oil. I hope my family doesn’t see this review because those are all their Christmas presents. Our tour guide had great suggestions. And my fiancé was caught sampling spices lol. (Don’t worry, it was sanitary - just dumped the sample bottle without contact to the cap).

First time there and it wont be the last! Chloe was there and was so helpful and provided me with loads of information about the delicious balsamics and homemade seasonings. I purchased the Summer Loving tea and did a cold brew. It was the BEST.

Today I went with my best friend for a quick stop at this location and we ended up spending over an hour here. The girl they had working was so nice and helpful and super knowledgeable on all of the products! We will be absolutely returning!

What a nice surprise in Downtown Land O Lakes. ;-) It is a very nice store, and well displayed inside. Loved the beef jerky! I got the teriyaki flavor. I make my own beef jerky often, this stuff was as great as my own and no hassle! Reasonably priced. The young sales associate was very polite, knowledgeable, and made great suggestions. Listen to her! Shes great. She suggested some Olive oil with Myers lemon for salads, my wife and I loved it! Oh, they have all kinds of coffee, teas, and spices...If you are into that. Finally, PICKLES!!! Fresh, local, awesome flavors. Every time I get a pizza next door, ill stop into the Main Ingredient and get a few things. I wish you well! Live long and Prosper! PMarian

I really love this small shop. I have loved everything Ive gotten from here. The basalmics and olive oils are my favorite. We also really like the different spice mixes. The owner is very polite and helpful. It is a little pricey but I think its quality product. The honey is delicious and fresh too. Its definitely a local shop you have to check out if you live around here.

A wide variety of products (teas, herbs, coffee) and the staff is super friendly! While I got several things at the store, my highlight purchase was their chocaholic smoothie which was delicious. I will definitely be back and bring my own container to refill my own olive oil 😁

At first we thought The Main Ingredient was a restaurant, luckily, they put signs out explaining what they sell. We love the teas and spices. Prices are fair for a specialty store.

Don’t leave without trying the bourbon balsamic and the apple pie tea. The different teas are awesome and so is the CBD oil! Best oil hands down.

Went for the first time today and really enjoyed this local shop. Good variety of teas, spices, and ketogenic and paleo cooking ingredients. They also provide samples of products and recipes to try before you buy. Sweet is knowledgeable about the products and provides useful information and recommendations. Highly suggest you check this place out.
