Nostalgia Lane with A & P. The first grocery chain, and I remember well the store in the 1950s at Harlem and Madison in Oak Park/Forest Park, Illinois. Didn’t know they were still around.

A&P finally failed because even back in the 1970’s, they couldn’t keep up with the times. Today, supermarkets are more like a Kroger or Safeway....

Damn. A too-quick read of the title made me think that AP (Absolute Propaganda) was going under.

No such luck.
