| - I luckily haven't had the displeasure of dealing with the jerky butcher Nadia C. encountered, and I'll be sure to steer clear of him in the future. This review, however, is about Sprout's fantastically affordable produce.
Every time I visit the store to stock up on my essential fruits and veggies, I'm always amazed at their great prices. Nowadays, when prices on everything are skyrocketing, it is a pleasure to know you can still find places to stretch your dollar.
On a recent visit, their deals were outstanding: limes 5 for $1; oranges 77cents/lbs; 2 pints of strawberries for $3, onions 3lbs for $1; and 2 cucumbers for $1! I don't think you can find better prices on produce anywhere else in the Valley, and it's good and fresh to boot -- they constantly are restocking and although most of the produce is smaller than you see at other grocery stores, that just means it is probably chemical and hormone free.
Their other offerings are a little pricey, mostly because they are lesser-known, healthy brands, but there are still some great deals even in that mix. Their homemade foccacia bread is to-die-for, and they sell ground turkey for $1.25/lb! You can't beat that, I swear!
I definitely recommend Sprouts for their wonderfully cheap and tasty produce. And as far as that butcher, maybe just go on a day when he isn't working.
