Wegman's rules. I wish they would expand down South.

Target on Millerville is the best to shop at in this area.

Never heard of them, or Shaw's either.

I am surprised that Whole Foods didn't make the top 5. The price factor probably did them in.

Wegman's is like a Whole Foods and a Publix combined. You can get your organic quinoa and free range chickens, but you can also get twinkies and doritos.

Never heard of any of them.
In Shreveport/Bossier I'd rank them this way:

1. Albertsons
2. Brookshires
3. Krogers
4. Walmart

People hate Walmart but still go there in droves. They have a commanding share of supermarket sales.

Prices > anything else... for most folks.

Publix is just ok. Overpriced for how not nice they are.

I have to think that Fresh Market is not on the list for best is that they have such a tiny presence in the market place, and the prices make some people back away for other markets.

Agreed.

They have friendly service, though, and they're always clean.

I usually hit up Whole Foods then (sic) Krogers

The best in Texas are Super HEB and their spin off Central Market. Both are better and cheaper, including natural/organic stuff than Whole Foods.

Ya, Whole Foods is mersh. Overpriced food to help hipsters feel self important. I also don't like the faux-local feel they try to perpetuate when they are as corporate as any other chain.

Sorry if any of you love WF.
