MarxFoods.com is a new service. Until November, you could only buy from us if you were a high-end restaurant. With over 5,000 extremely-hard-to-find items, I knew that we would be giving home chefs access to a whole new stable of products.

In terms of which products our new home chef customers would buy, I had only guesses (which were wrong) and hopes (which are yet unfulfilled).

I just thought I’d share with you, dear readers, what our customers are busy snapping up. We’ve sold a little bit from almost every category, but here’s our most popular product categories over the last six months in no particular order:

Turtle Meat, Alligator Meat & Frog Legs*
Camelina Oil & Camelina Seeds**
Palm Leaf Plates
Frozen Huckleberries
Kobe Burgers
Pheasant
Truffle & Truffle Products

*Let’s just say that I’m bewildered…we must be the only webstore in the US that sells this stuff. I have no other explanation, other than that there might be some silent food movement toward eating amphibians and reptiles.

**I think it is just the beginning. This is the next most-popular-salad-oil-you’ve-never-heard-of. It is fantastic, healthy, and you can’t get it anywhere else.

If anyone has some insight as to why people aren’t buying the more traditional items in greater quantities…please let me know.
