Reply #31: RACIAL pricing in the box markets: Get this; I had this giant tortoise for

[radwriter0555]

a while, and the only thing he could eat was fruits and veggies and grasses and romaine lettuce.

I'm here in southern California; The primary box grocery store is ralphs. I definitely shop and compare prices, especially when feeding a giant tortoise 2-3 heads of romaine lettuce per day.

I noticed that in Hancock Park, the romaine lettuce was almost $2 per bunch. But at the Ralphs on Crenshaw, down here in the West Adams (we call it 'hood adjacent!) the same lettuce was half that, at $1.00 a head.

AND if I went to the Korean market on Olympic and Western, (not ralph's though) it was cheaper even still, at .50c per head.

Same lettuce. And, go figure, the best quality was at the Korean market (great place, very clean, tidy and organized.. love that market for veggies, top quality, lowest price!)
