ParticipantThe shopping carts are beyond disgusting. I don't think they ever washed them, and I've seen plenty of janitors use them to hall away garbage early in the morning only to return them to the cart lines in the stores without doing anything else.
Ick. Fortunately I've never used shopping carts there mostly because it's always been too crowded to navigate with a cart. It's much easier to grab some pickled cucumbers and leave as quickly as possible. But I'll try Zion next time!

May 17, 2008 at 10:57 PM #206697ParticipantI was told by the chef at Ruth's Chris that the best place to buy meat is Costco. I've gotten a lot of good meat there, and also from Whole Foods but they're quite expensive. I typically wouldn't buy meat from the Asian markets.
No Costco membership. Maybe someday when we have a garage to store our extra junk. Somebody recommended Whole Foods to me the other day for corned beef (and he keeps pretty kosher), so I guess the meat department there is quite reputable. I'll give it a try next time we make wontons. We've also heard good things about Iowa Meat Farms.

ParticipantI’ll also second the meat at Costco.
In decresing order, meats are graded
Prime
Choice
Select
Some lower rating like “standard” or something – I forget.I don’t remember if regular grocery stores sell select or something lower.
Costco, though sells Choice-graded meat and the price is good.
I’ll try that place on Diane – that’s really close to home for me.
I think FLU’s family must own a competing Chinese market. :O
