Earth Fare will be great for greater Akron consumers.\n\nVery, very nice store. Well-stocked with lots of options; pricing seemed better overall than Mustard Seed or Whole Foods. I didn't spend much time in the wine department, an area that Mustard Seed excels at, and I'm not a big supplement person, so can't judge that either. Bakery didn't seem to have as broad a selection as West Point Market, but the couple of things I bought were delicious. There is a \"scoop your own (frozen) ravioli\" bin that was cool (was shopping for Vegan relative's visit, so that was out of bounds this trip).\n\nLooking forward to a return visit."^^ . . "0"^^ . .
