Went to buy cookies today. They have signs on the front door touting have they still have all the great cookies from Paradise Bakery days. Upon ordering, I am told if I buy six, you get six free. Sounds great. Went in mainly for Peanut Butter cookies, but now can get some others. Oh wait, there are less than 15 cookies in the case and none in back. LAME. This is what most people feared when a big corporation buys out the local place.
They also "remodeled". You used to be able to observe the food preparation and maybe even get inspired on what to order by things you saw as they came up. Now it is all hidden away behind huge walls.
I will find a new place and support local bakeries.
