There are so many regional stores that how can you pick a single best? Maybe if they did regional contests it would be more meaningful. I’ve only HEARD of two on the list and only shopped at one - Trader Joe’s.
Hy-Vee
The Fresh Market
Heinen’s Grocery Store
Stew Leonard’s
Gelson’s Markets
Aldi
Publix Super Markets
Trader Joe’s
Wegmans Food Markets
Fresh Thyme Market
Here in Jacksonville, we have The Fresh Market, Aldi’s, Publix, Winn Dixie now owned by Aldi’s, Super Walmart, and Trader Joe’s although I’ve shopped at all of them, Publix is the one we shop 90% of the time
I went to a Hy-Vee once and was impressed.
Gelsons is just high priced.
Trader Joe’s is ok, but is a bit more a specialty store.
Aldi is owned by the same German company that owns Trader Joe’s. It’s great. Good selection, good quality, low prices (until Biden).
I never heard of the others either.
Here in Northern California is there’s only Trader Joes off this list. And they’re overrated IMO
Not a single one of those in this 350,000 metro market, I guess we’re deprived. But I’m fine with WinCo and Walmart and occasionally Yoke’s Fresh Market..
Trader is the only store on that list that exists in Spokane. Fortunately, one of their stores is very close to me.
I wonder why Ingles isn’t on the list?
I don’t understand why people like Aldis. I went there once and it reminded me of the Dollar Store.
Fresh Market has some good stuff, but very limited and very expensive.
Publix is a good general grocery store, but also pricey unless you are really into coupons.
I’ve been in Aldi once, left because they don’t have a lot of stuff I use regularly.
Never been to any of the others.
