I'm not to the point in my life where I'm having to eat cat food. Sorry. I'm sure their stuff is good, I just don't understand why people get all frothy about the place.
We have a Fresh Market opening up a few blocks away in April. Supposed to be a high end market focusing mainly on meats and produce. Publix (right across the street) is not happy. They have ratcheted up their marketing in the neighborhood. There is a meat market right next door to the place, too. We're taking bets to see how long they last once it opens.
