And just so I'm clear, where exactly is Downtown Foodland again?

I'm aware of Lafayette Foods [[is that the former Downtown Foodland?), which I am also not impressed by.

As far as myself, I don't live downtown or near downtown either. I live in NE Detroit.

In fact, it's far more convenient, in theory, for me to buy meat from the GRosse Pointe Kroger than the...

Not everyone has the time or patience to plan trips to the Eastern Market.

Those are the times when a good neighborhood market is beneficial [[or when you simply need a quick gallon of milk or eggs...

I can't speak for anyone else, but yes, as an African American myself, I would.

Privately owned and operated monopolies are bad news, regardless of who owns them.

Yep to the bolded.

That's insulted by the fact that the stores are generally owned by the same group of people [[Chaldeans) who not only benefit from a line of capital exclusive only to them [[see...

I can count on one hand the number of stores I will buy meat from in the city, mainly because I refuse to get robbed by Kroger or Meijer.

But otherwise, I'm with you. I go to Kroger or Meijer to...

Dots is liquidating all of their stores, so the only thing left soon will be the Beauty Supply store [[is the Athlete's Foot, Payless and Ashley Stewart still there?).

I'm pretty sure he said the same people [[Chaldeans) who own Parkway Foods in Riverbend Plaza are opening another grocery store inside the old Farmer Jack.

Well technically, the 2 Krogers in the GPs are not in GPP.

But it's better than going to the Warren Kroger. The Roseville Kroger [[Eastgate Shopping Center) is too congested.

I'm pretty sure poobert answered your question earlier in the thread.

I'm well aware of WHY things are the way they are. I'm merely pointing out that it's wrong and I suggested a solution in the thread earlier to fix the issue.

BTW, I take my money to Kroger in the...

For the record, I wasn't referring to Aldi or Trader Joe's in my posts [[I believe there are only 2 or 3 in the entire city?).

Anyways, the problem with Aldi is that they're a no-frills market....

There's nothing unscrupulous about the facts.

The vast majority of the stores in Detroit that just so happen to be owned by Chaldeans suck.

That could be for a number of reasons. Maybe it's...

Who else owns and operates most of the stores in the city? I suppose just stating that fact is offensive now too...



Also owned by Chaldeans [[although they technically don't sell Spartan...

The Mike's Fresh Market on 7 Mile and Gratiot has an awful rotten meat smell inside of it. That alone is a huge turnoff for me.

I go to either the Kroger in "The Village" or on Mack/Vernier to...

It WOULD be nice if the city actually regulated the quality of food and service these Chaldean-owned Spartan Stores offer.

The vast majority of them SUCK. If it's not bad enough that you feel like...

*Farmer JACK.

You should know better as a Detroiter...:o
