It was really hard to do with a straight face. I’d let her run with it for 5 years down in Texas (where no one really cared).

yeah but... we grew up calling it the heeb. Had one Jewish gal in my high school. She made the most of saying the heeb oughtta be hers.

At any rate you know a lot of us Texans can't get the right groceries we want without the heeb. There's some other chains now that cater to Texas cuisine but until 10 or 15 years ago no other chain worked. Granted, in our hometowns there'd be locally owned stores we could patronize. But when heading to a new town we had to rely on HEB for fixins.

That and who wants to “go over to The Butts Store” to get groceries?

You mean, they sell butts?

I worked the fresh meat counter for a year before we left. Good times.
