You really need to go here to discover the awesomeness yourself. Basically this is a HUGE warehouse-sized space with bulk food. But it's so much cooler than that. The bulk food is sold by weight so it's all in containers where you scoop what you want into a bag. (Definitely check out the pictures I posted!)
The foods include:
-Candy including candy bars (which I've never seen in bulk) and unusual gummy items (like fried eggs and belly buttons).
-Chocolate
-Snacks and nuts
-Dried spices
And REALLY random stuff like:
-Powdered cheese sauce
-Powdered beef broth
And YUMMY looking stuff like:
-Giant pieces of peanut brittle (it's weird to see something so big that is still bought by weight)
Remember those places called "Sweet Factory" that were in every mall in the early 90s where they had all sorts of candy in every color and you just turned the crank for the amount you wanted and then were overcharged by weight? It's like that - but with ridiculously random things like powdered chicken gravy.
I'm still really not doing this place justice - you better look at the photos. Imagine hundreds upon hundreds of random foods sold by weight.
I've never actually bought anything here. I just like to run around and see what they have. Their prices seem reasonable, and they have some items that are so good my mother-in-law always comes here when she's in town. They also have a deli in the back and a few food products sold the "regular way" (a.k.a. not weighed at the counter).
But one other can't miss thing is the giant statue of Mr. Peanut behind plexiglass when you first come in.
I know it doesn't sound like it but it's really awesome - trust me.
