Feta Cheese

Feta cheese is a classic Mediterranean dairy product that is often enjoyed on its own, in Greek salads, on bread, or mixed with zucchini. Depending on where the feta is sourced and produced, the cheese can be made from cow, sheep, or goat milk, or even a combination of the three. Regardless of the animal it comes from, this delicious cheese is a crowd favorite.

Baba Ganoush

This Levantine dish is one of the most well-known Mediterranean dishes to eat in the United States. It typically comes in the form of a dip, served with pita or another kind of dipping bread. Commonly served before dinner as an appetizer of sorts, it usually features tahini, eggplant, garlic, spices, and sometimes yogurt. This tasty cuisine works great as a spread on a sandwich, or you can even eat it with a spoon, all on its own.

Baklava

If you have never tried authentic baklava before, get ready to have your mind blown. This dessert is a traditional Mediterranean food that will have your taste buds craving more and more. Once you open a box of baklava from our Mediterranean grocery wholesaler in San Antonio, TX, you won't want to stop eating! Baklava is made with layers of thin filo dough, which is layered together, filled with chopped nuts (think pistachios), and sealed with honey or syrup. Baklava is so good that its origins are debated, leaving many wondering which country invented the dessert. Everyone from the Turks to the Greeks and even Middle Easterners hold unique takes on baklava. Try each one to discover your favorite!

Most Popular Wholesale Middle Eastern Foods

Fresh, healthy, aromatic, rich: it's no wonder that the popularity of Middle Eastern cuisine and products has skyrocketed in the United States. This genre of cuisine features a large variety of foods, from Halvah to Labneh. If there were one common theme throughout all Middle Eastern food, it would be the bright, vibrant herbs and spices that are used. These flavorings help create rich, complex flavors that foodies fawn over. Typically, Middle Eastern food is piled high for all to eat, with enough food for an entire republic to put down.

Tabbouleh

This refreshing, healthy dish is chock-full of greens, herbs, tomatoes, and bulgur (or cracked wheat), creating a memorable, bold flavor. This dish may be eaten on its own or paired with a shawarma sandwich or helping of falafel. It's best to buy your ingredients in bulk to make this dish because it tastes best freshly made with family around to enjoy. Just be sure to bring a toothpick to the tabbouleh party - you're almost certain to have some leafy greens stuck in your teeth after eating.

 Middle Eastern Market San Antonio, TX

Shawarma

We mentioned shawarma above, and for good reason - this dish is enjoyed by men and women around the world, and of course, right here in the U.S. Except for falafel, this might be the most popular Middle Eastern food item in history. Shawarma is kind of like a Greek gyro, with slow-roasted meat stuffed in laffa with veggies and sauce. The blend of spices and the smoky meat mix together to create a tangy, meaty flavor that you will want to keep eating for hours. For western-style shawarma, try using beef or chicken. For a more traditional meal, try using lamb from our Middle Eastern grocery distributor in San Antonio, TX.

 Greek Grocery Store San Antonio, TX

Hummus

Traditionally used as a dip meant for fresh pita, hummus is a combo of chickpeas, garlic, and tahini, blended together until silky, smooth, and creamy. You can find hummus in just about any appetizer section of a Middle Eastern restaurant menu. That's because it's considered a staple of Middle Eastern food that can be enjoyed by itself, as a spread, or with fresh-baked pita bread. Hummus is also very healthy, making it a no-brainer purchase from our grocery store.

Benefits of Eating a Mediterranean Diet

If there's one diet that is most well-known for its health benefits, it has got to be the Mediterranean diet. In 2019, U.S. News & World Report listed the Mediterranean diet as No. 1 on its best over diet list. This incredible diet has been cited to help with weight loss, brain health, heart health, diabetes prevention, and cancer prevention.

Whether you already love Mediterranean food or you're looking to make some positive changes in your life, this "diet" is for you. Eating cuisine like Greek food, Persian food, Turkish food, and Italian food is healthy and tastes great. Even better than that? At Nazareth Wholesale Grocery, we have many staples of the Mediterranean diet for sale in bulk so that you can stock up on your favorites at the best prices around.

So, what exactly is the Mediterranean diet?

It is a way of eating that incorporates traditional Greek, Italian, and other Mediterranean cultures' foods. These foods are often plant-based and make up the foundation of the diet, along with olive oil. Fish, seafood, dairy, and poultry are also included in moderation. Red meat and sweets are only eaten in moderation, not in abundance. Mediterranean food includes many forms of nuts, fruits, vegetables, fish, seeds, and more. Of course, you can find at them all at our wholesale Mediterranean grocery store!

Here are just a few of the many benefits of eating a healthy Mediterranean diet:

Reduced Risk of Heart Disease

Reduced Risk
of Heart Disease

Many studies have been conducted on this diet, many of which report that Mediterranean food is excellent for your heart. Some of the most promising evidence comes from a randomized clinical trial published in 2013. For about five years, researchers followed 7,000 men and women around the country of Spain. These people had type 2 diabetes or were at a high risk for cardiovascular disease. Participants in the study who ate an unrestricted Mediterranean diet with nuts and extra-virgin olive oil were shown to have a 30% lower risk of heart events.

Reduced Risk of Stroke for Women

Reduced Risk
of Stroke for Women

In addition to the heart-healthy benefits of a Mediterranean diet, studies have shown that eating healthy Mediterranean and Middle Eastern foods can reduce the chances of stroke in women. The study was conducted in the U.K., which included women between the ages of 40 and 77. Women who stuck to the Mediterranean diet showed a lower risk of having a stroke - especially women who were at high risk of having one.

Benefits of Eating a Mediterranean Diet

First and foremost, purchase your Mediterranean and Middle Eastern wholesale foods from Nazareth Grocery - we're always updating our inventory! Getting started on this healthy, delicious diet is easy.

Try these tips

1.

Instead of unhealthy sweets like candy and ice cream, try eating fresh fruit instead. It's refreshing, tasty, and often packed with great vitamins and nutrients.

2.

Try eating fish twice a week, in lieu of red meat. Fish is much healthier and doesn't have the unfortunate side effects of red meat, like inflammation.

3.

Try planning out your meals using beans, whole grains, and veggies. Don't start with meats and sweets.

4.

They're tasty, but try to avoid processed foods completely.

5.

Instead of using butter to flavor your food, use extra virgin olive oil instead. Olive oil contains healthy fats and tastes great too.

6.

Try to get more exercise and get out of the house. The Mediterranean lifestyle is an active one, best enjoyed in the beautiful sunshine when possible.

Why Buy Mediterranean and Middle Eastern Products Wholesale?

Buying wholesale and retail are quite different. When you buy products from a wholesaler, you're essentially buying from the middleman between a retail establishment and the manufacturer. Wholesale purchases are almost always made in bulk. Because of that, buyers pay a discounted price. That's great for normal buyers and great for business owners, who can sell those products to profit. This higher price is called the retail price, and it is what traditional customers pay when they enter a retail store.

Now that we know that there are six more weeks of winter after Punxsutawney Phil spotted his shadow last Sunday, there remains an opportunity for a seasonal escape, particularly for retirees.

They might want to look into these five Texas towns featured on the list of the top 100 U.S. towns that seniors are eager to visit during the winter, according to a report from Freedom Showers, a site dedicated to those in need of accessible shower facilities.

The Lone Star State cities highlighted in the list include Port Aransas, Georgetown, Fredericksburg, Granbury, and Bastrop.

"The U.S. is miles ahead of many other countries in prioritizing accessible public spaces, travel, and accommodations," said Ryan Holt of Freedom Showers in a release to MySA. "This makes it a standout option for senior travelers, especially as international travel becomes less appealing with age."

Though it narrowly missed the top 10, Port Aransas' pleasant weather and ocean breeze secured the No. 12 position. Georgetown, a Central Texas town just outside of Austin, impressed senior travelers with its charming downtown area, picturesque parks and local events, earning it the No. 30 spot.

Following Georgetown is the beloved Texas Hill Country town Fredericksburg at No. 32. Renowned as the heart of Texas Wine Country, it boasts over 100 wineries and tasting rooms in the area. Granbury, located near Fort Worth, with its historic square and senior-friendly paths, caught the interest of travelers, landing at No. 40 on the list.

The last Texas town mentioned was Bastrop at No. 55. The vibrant downtown and beautiful views make Bastrop an excellent choice for senior visitors.

The list of the 100 best U.S. winter getaway towns was compiled from over 3,000 respondents aged 65 and older. The top three towns were all in Florida, with Venice in the Tampa Bay area taking the No. 1 position, followed by Mount Dora and Punta Gorda, respectively. The top 10 list featured only towns from Florida and Hawaii.

A major crash is impacting traffic on the Westside of San Antonio. The incident happened around 2:15 p.m. on the eastbound lanes of Highway 90 near Hunt Lane. The Texas Department of Transportation reports all lanes of Highway 90 are shut down past Hunt Lane. Drivers are urged to use the Loop 410 exits to get around the crash. News 4 San Antonio reports at least one person is dead from the crash involving a motorcycle.

Traffic monitoring site SigAlert reports that vehicles are being forced onto the Loop 410 exit ramp. An alternative route drivers can use is taking the southbound lanes of Loop 1604 to northbound I-35 to northbound Loop 410. Cars are moving as slow as 1 miles per hour in the area.

It's unclear how many vehicles were part of the crash, but reports say a motorcycle is one of the vehicles involved. MySA has reached out to the San Antonio Fire Department for more information. No word on how long crews will be working to clear the scene of the crash, but if this is your route home, TxDOT urges drivers to find an alternative route or expect major delays.

What attributed the ban and how it relates to the drought across the Alamo City

The first few weeks of 2025 haven’t brought much-needed rainfall to South Central Texas.

This week’s drought monitor still shows ongoing drought across the area. In fact, Bexar County commissioners reinstated the burn bans due to continuously dry conditions.

While the burn order is in effect, dry conditions could lead to potential brush fires in the unincorporated areas of Bexar County.

During the order’s duration, residents in unincorporated areas are allowed to burn domestic waste in a certain barrel. However, during dry conditions it is still recommended to avoid tall dry grass or bushes while driving, performing outdoor welding, cutting or grinding.

With another burn ban in affect for 90 days in Bexar County, here’s what that mean for us and our drought:

A collection of daily blog posts from the KSAT Weather Authority.

Drought worsens

It’s no secret that we need rain. The last time South Central Texas was completely drought-free was in early September 2021 — that equates to 1,247 consecutive days.

Thanks in part to this year’s La Niña stretch, drought conditions have been persistent across portions of South Central Texas for two years now.

Below is a side-by-side comparison of the drought monitor across the state from the end of January 2024 versus the end of January 2025. What a difference!

Here is a closer look at what the latest drought monitor looks like across South Central Texas as of Jan. 30, 2025.

While areas surrounding Bexar County are experiencing extreme drought, just a quick drive away in another direction shows lesser drought conditions.

Remember, exceptional drought is the most severe classification, factoring in elements like precipitation, reservoir levels, soil moisture, vegetation health and streamflow.

Rainfall statistics

January 2025 wasn’t anything special. We were in the middle of records for more days with or without precipitation.

Much of the local area saw below-normal rainfall since August 2024.

How does this affect our reservoirs?

The Edwards Aquifer, along with the lakes, reservoirs and rivers of South Central Texas, continue to experience the impact of the ongoing drought and insufficient rainfall.

Here’s an update on the current water levels:

Any chances of rain in the future?

Looking ahead, isolated rain chances are expected to return as soon as this weekend, with a pattern shift and better chances of rain becoming more likely by early next week.

The latest outlook issued by the Climate Prediction Center is still calling for a drier-than-average February. While we won’t see enough rain to get out of the drought, humidity will be on the rise and the air will be quite muggy, making it feel as though rain is imminent.

We’ll keep you posted for any updates to come!

Trump's tariffs could cost Texas billions and impact San Antonio's trade

Texas stands to lose $47.1 billion — the most of any state — if ...

Texas stands to lose $47.1 billion — the most of any state — if President Trump's tariffs on goods from Canada and Mexico take effect, along with those already imposed on China.

Why it matters: Tariffs may be a political tool for extracting concessions from targeted countries, but they also drive up costs for everyday Americans — especially in San Antonio, whose largest trading partner is Mexico.

Catch up quick: Trump on Saturday imposed tariffs of 25% on Mexican and Canadian goods and 10% on Canadian energy imports, and he issued new 10% tariffs on Chinese imports.

Zoom in: The looming tariffs could cost Americans $1,200 a year, U.S. Rep. Joaquin Castro (D-San Antonio) told reporters Monday alongside Mayor Ron Nirenberg.

By the numbers: San Antonio exported $383 million to and imported $35.4 million in goods from Mexico in 2023, according to the Observatory of Economic Complexity.

The other side: Texas Gov. Greg Abbott told the Houston Chronicle he's not worried about the tariffs, calling them part of Trump's negotiation tactics to secure stronger border cooperation.

Zoom out: The tariffs as issued Saturday would have an estimated $232.7 billion national impact, per research from Trade Partnership Worldwide based on trade from January to November 2024.

How it works: The estimates are based on census data for foreign imports and reflect "the composition of current trade based on existing company-to-company relationships," Trade Partnership Worldwide president Daniel S. Anthony tells Axios.

Caveat: Tariffs may lead to less trade overall, Anthony notes — meaning past data isn't necessarily indicative of future tariff effects.
