There is something about wandering my local supermarket aisle that is both therapeutic and exciting. The familiarity of heading to the exact location to grab eggs, bananas or green onions; checking for sale (or better yet, clearance) items and saving a few bucks; examining a new product off the shelf and debating whether I should try it. It’s a task I rarely take lightly.
When a slew of markets began sprouting “Coming Soon” banners, it was a proverbial sign of things to come. From ethnic powerhouse chains to wife-and-husband owned specialty shops, Orange County grocery options were about to blow up in a very good way. Plus, with the holiday season around the corner, now’s the time to review one’s options so that last minute dash to the store is time well-spent.
