Here is the Food City in Houston. Not in a great area at all.
Texas is nothing but ghetto thugs, shite-kicking yokels, and gun-hating liberals.

I shop around all over St. Louis area. There is no place that have just everything you need/like. I even buy online. I don't go eat junk or unhealthy food. I am very picky what I eat. So that is why I shop around some food stores have same name brand, but some will be cheaper. There are other name brands that are cheaper and tastes just as good or even better. I go to Schnucks, Dierbergs, Whole foods, Aldis, Trader Joes, Global Market, and some others but never go to low ended stores. I do not buy anything at one place I get food that I like/need that are healthy for me.

Aldis
You don’t know what aldis is then do you?
Aldi (stylised as ALDI)[3] is the common company brand name of two German multinational family-owned discount supermarket chains operating over 10,000 stores in 20 countries.
Trader Joe’s is a nice store with discount low end products. And it’s owned by Aldi group. Both stores sell primarily the same discounted products under house brands.
It’s just good marketing that makes you feel better about shopping there.

I buy very few things from each store I go to. Aldis no different. I buy some of the food there that are very reasonable and good enough for me and is cheaper than like Trader Joes. I go to Trader Joes for other food that I don't like at Aldis. See what I did here? Same for Whole Foods and all the other food store I go to. I test them and see if I can get the same quality at a cheaper price and/or availablilty.

Whole foods
Thieving liberals. I buy a certain brand of chocolate milk in glass bottles. $4.99 per half gallon at Fresh Market. Three blocks down the street at Whole Foods it is $7.99. Grind your own almond butter is $9.99 per pound at Fresh Market. $17.99 per pound at Whole Foods.
Whole Foods had a big NO FIREARMS ALLOWED sign. This guarantees I am putting a large caliber weapon in my waistband. Fresh Market has no such sign.

Trader Joes
Never got a bad Trader Joe's house brand product. You notice they don't have huge media advertising campaigns? That is where they save the money.

I just think it’s amusing that folks turn their nose up at house brands everywhere but Aldi and Trader Joe’s.
As for Whole Foods, that’s pure marketing genius. The same brands you can find at Walmart but at 5x the price.
I buy vegetables at either local farms, a local farmers market called Horn o Plenty or in season the weekly farmers markets. Beef comes from local farms. Chicken I buy from locals, and eggs. The little pork I buy comes from food city. The rest is a mix of food city, food lion, Kroger and Walmart.
