Have you ever wanted to see what an American supermarket looks like? Come on then, I’ll take you on a tour. I should tell you first off, that this is not my everyday supermarket. I am going to show you the fancy one. It’s larger than my local, (think bunnings size) and twice as expensive. But there is a reason for me coming here today. I’ll get to that in a minute. The feel of this place is like coming to an olde ye world style market place with all the trimmings included. Perhaps it would look like that if it had horse and carts in the carpark.
It has a coffee shop and a cafe in it. It also has a separate juice bar, bakery, sushi, pizza and salad stands where they have people chopping everything as you order on the spot. (My pic came out blurry so you have a professional pic from internet).
There is a big fresh meat section, the closest I’ve seen to a butcher, as well as fish stalls and delicatessen style cold meats and European cheeses.
There’s a whole aisle for yogurt. Who knew Americans liked yogurt that much!
There is a brilliant “international” grocery section. I’ve come here in search of golden syrup. I found it in the UK section. I want to make more Anzac biscuits now just so I can use it. It will probably sit in the pantry until this time next year.
More Cadbury’s chocolate – yay!
Today brings no words, just the standard farewell – thank you for shopping with us today Ms. Fletcher. (The loyalty card is in my husbands name.) Did you find everything ok? Any coupons today? Do you need any help out to your car? How’s that for customer service.
