Rumor Mill Churning

Montana Market moving north would be good for everybody. I see the employees scooting across main street from storage to store and wonder how they can keep shooting across this human gauntlet safely. The parking in front of the store is near passe' as well, with the steady flow of traffic making it a hazard to back out from. I have faith that the market would flourish with more elbow room for customers. I also like the meat counter at Montana Market vs. the pre-wrap at Steins. I think it makes for a fresher and more sanitary cut. A steak that has been suffocated in cellophane with a pool of blood leeching out from under it just doesn't stimulate my digestive juices in the same way that picking out my own steak wrapped on the spot does. Last week I bought a bag of rice flour at Montana Market and I have also been buying spelt bread there. I hope that they continue to offer alternatives to the corn syrup and hydrogenated oil infested shelves of most small supermarkets. Organics? Yes. Personally, however at this time and place in our economy I would like to see more local farmers- organically certified or not- encouraged to sell at the local stores.
