bnmjy Posted March 13, 2019 Share Posted March 13, 2019 Trader Joe's, as it actually can be reasonably priced while still be good quality and organic. It has some quirky items too. I've been disappointed every time I go to Whole Foods. Overpriced bullshit. Even if I were rich I wouldn't shop there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

midnight Posted March 13, 2019 Share Posted March 13, 2019 I have been to neither. But I have been to Fresh Market. They have some nice things. It's more upscale items. No cheap shit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GunStarHero Posted March 13, 2019 Share Posted March 13, 2019 Trader Joe's for the more unique items. Also I liked the cheap, individual bottles of water during the summer. They're like 17 cents each versus one anywhere else for $1-3. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had one in our neighborhood when we lived in Savannah. We used to go there sometimes. Their cheese is to die for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whole Foods was so disappointing when I first went there. The produce was so-so, their pantry selection was no better than regular stores, that overpriced food bar was mediocre as fuck, and the only thing above average was their meat variety. The first time I went to Trader Joe's, my ass had to be practically dragged out of that store just because of their darn frozen food section. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's Whole Foods around but no Trader Joe's. But Fresh Market is the place to go for quality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trader Joe's i like, but is way too far from me. i almost never see anyone in the whole foods that's right by me so i have no idea how they stay open when we literally have three other cheaper groceries stores almost right next door to it 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chapinator_X Posted March 14, 2019 Share Posted March 14, 2019 (edited) Trader Joe’s is more reliable for everyday food. Other than a few niche things, Whole Foods is somewhere I go if I can’t find something anywhere else. For some reason, the beer at Whole Foods is cheaper than other nearby grocery stores.

Skiles Posted March 14, 2019 Share Posted March 14, 2019 I would rather die young from cardiac arrest or slow poisoning from all the God-knows-what that's in processed food, than live to be an old person and spend those years researching where the fuck my chicken lived before it ended up on my plate.
