I can cook, and they seem to be focusing on those that cannot.

I didn't know what to think about it the first time I went either, but I think once one gets past the sterile atmosphere & packaging (whose design & font makes their stuff look waaay generic), it's not bad!

Huge environmental faux pas, yet they offer parking spaces for hybrids? GREENWASHING!!!<BR/><BR/>I wouldn't shop there for that fact alone, food shouldn't be wrapped 2 to 3 times. The waste, natural resources, time, and money used to wrap that one item for one person to eat destroys way more than it ever Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7882089.post-32697533808675278752009-01-17T23:06:00.000-08:002009-01-17T23:06:00.000-08:00Is the store layout any different?

Maybe if feels as if they don't particularly value me as a childless, non-hybrid driving customer. I know these spaces certainly predisposed to dislike Fresh & Easy before I even got through the door. <BR/><BR/>If there was one nearby to me, I might stop occasionally, but they are too sterile and as someone who usually cooks, Barry JThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11861933530212352345noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7882089.post-39781948251793947022009-01-17T18:46:00.000-08:002009-01-17T18:46:00.000-08:00They'll probably continue to help people bag their...They'll probably continue to help people bag their food - they still do over on Eagle Rock Blvd. <BR/><BR/>I'm not so sure I like that hybrid parking space idea - not sure I'd respect it if I needed a space. Seems kinda arbitrary and way too politcally correct to suit me. The spaces for people with little children make a lot more sense. That's just kindness and I can embrace that.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
