Shopping in a supermarket may be fast, but it doesn't feel warm or human. Once in awhile you get a great cashier, but for the most part the employees are as disconnected to the food they sell as the customers. I usually go to a local farm market/deli where I can get lentils and all sorts of dried beans and fresh produce, and when shopping for the meat eaters in my family, i visit the local butcher. At both places they know who I am, and make me feel welcome, and I know the food is better because it is more fresh. Plus, if there are any other vegetarians out there who shop for meat eaters, you should know that the major chains are infusing their beef with carbon monoxide because it will stay red, no matter how old it gets. Can't be good for you. Stay away! I agree, Toni. Shopping in a supermarket may be fast, but it doesn’t feel warm or human.
