In the past 15 years, it has gone from one of the better chains on Long Island to the worst. Especially the produce -- if it doesn't have a peel or a thick skin for longer shelf life, they only way they'll carry it (if at all) is pre-wrapped. Fish always looks grey and dried out (or mushy, in the case of salmon). Seems they just don't care any more. I have one 1/4 mile from my house but I only go there for emergency food runs.

My husband gets annoyed because my first stop there is always the courtesy counter, to get my money back. Lots of times it's $5 or $10. They're closest to me, so I still go, but I don't trust them at all. Mon Apr 13 11:50:28 -0700 2009 4591777 11097 coll
