Haven't had a chance to visit Publix yet, but when I do get a chance, I'm sure it will still be there.

I agree. While I have my problems with WalMart, like the store here in Muscle Shoals is probably the worst managed store of any kind I have ever seen , we still mostly do our grocery shopping there, and pick up other stuff as well.
Since Publix is on the other side of the Tennessee Ocean, I have not been there yet. Spent some time working in Key West a couple of years ago, and there was no WalMart there, so I went to Publix. I like the store, and for sure they had a plethora of things , but the price was pretty high, and I don't really need a huge variety.
Bought some Tbond steaks at FoodWorld before they changed to Bella, and they were the absolute worse steaks I have ever had. Should have taken them to the cobbler to retred my old Tony Lamas. Even tried crock potting them overnight and they were still too tough, Never went back to Food Land.
