The article and the anecdote (Birdman) are from 2015 or earlier, but this is a perfect description of Trump Derangement Syndrome type people.
For a lot of fresh vegetables, we’ve found Costco to be less expensive than our local supermarket; but more importantly, their stuff is very fresh and lasts much longer for us than veggies from other places. We get romaine and the Spring Mix box from the ‘cold room’ there, and it has lasted up two weeks in the refrigerator if we don’t eat it up before
the reason it lasts is that it is irradiated.
Yup and the jokes on them as organic doesnt mean organic anymore ever since the feds redefined it. Its a sham.
You know, the people pushing their 50s who through diet, exercise, and plastic surgery look like they’re in their late 40s.

The antigens that indicate the possibility of celiac disease occur in 1 in 110 tested blood samples. Of those, less than 1 in 10 have symptoms. No celiac gluten sensitivity has not been identified as a thing. Tests show that symptoms do not occur after people who complain they have it are given gluten, at least not within a defined period of observation. Yet in some metro areas, as many as fifteen percent of affluent white people claim they have it. These were the idiot I was bashing. To be clear: they report having gluten sensitivity, but show no symptoms after being given gluten tests.
It looks like the Maryland Fresh Markets are all pretty far from me; but I get to Rockville now and then, and will look for it.
I didn’t know that. Do irradiated foods have to be marked as such?
So?
Endlessly amused that the people who are today 80-100 years old grew up on stuff like lard and non-organic food.
WF’s is a magnet for dorky, unhealthy looking, smug, pushy, phony libs.
Our local Giant Food squashed the shelves closer together a couple of years ago. The narrower aisles really impacted the whole shopping experience. Not as pleasant anymore.
e neither. My wife shops at Aldi and WalMart.
A Lidl is opening across from Aldi. That might get added to the list.
The only other close choice is a Shop Rite. One of the owners of the franchise said that he didn’t want the business of gun owners, so I’m obliging his wishes.
Maybe you haven’t taken the time to visit their craft beer bar. There you can grab a meal and sample up to 42 beers. I’ve seen nothing but enjoyable people there.
I have been to Whole Paycheck, I mean Whole Foods, and when I have left, I feel like I need to take a boiling hot shower to wash off the dirt from the other customers. The drivers of Prius’ with the Coexist and Hillary stickers makes me feel violated.
The writer is correct, it’s not Whole Foods the store or the company, They are exceptionally nice. It is the clientele’. They are pretentious posers like the trash you see at a Starbucks.
Wegmans is far better because the clientele is normal.
Agree. It’s a bit ridiculous. Personally, I love Wegman’s when I need a change of pace.
The author has issues.
I have 3 Giant food stores to choose from in my neighborhood. All very different in layout, lighting, and customer demographics. Day to day operations differ according to the manager teams.
What are the pros and cons of irradiation? This is something that I’m not ‘up’ on.
The world is full of different people from gracious and accepting to smug, rude and sanctimonious. You cannot change them, so why not just accept them?
Frankly, I think the idea that people are “looking down their noses at you” is more in the eye of the beholder than the other person. Some people are just too sensitive and ready to be offended at the smallest perceived slight.
Shopping in Manhattan is obnoxious because there is just no space!
