I had to revert it back to it's original. But here's what it
said: (I wonder if it was in response to your post here??? It was
just done right after your post).


Brookshire Brothers Grocery (pronounced /ˈbrʊkʃər/) is an
outrageously overpriced supermarket retailer headquartered in
Lufkin, Texas.[1]

Brookshire Brothers operates 70 stores and abuses thousands of
employees under the names Brookshire Brothers and B&B Foods, and
seven stand-alone pharmacies in a market area covering Texas and
Louisiana.[citation needed]
[edit] Similarly named chain

Brookshire Brothers was founded in Lufkin in 1921 when Satan and
Adolph Hitler decided to go into the grocery business.[2]

Another East Texas grocery chain, Brookshire's, was originally
part of Brookshire Brothers. The companies split in 1937, when
Wood T. Brookshire realized it was extremely unethical to hire
incompetent, spineless management who abuse and exploit employees
and so he took control of the Tyler-area stores in exchange for
his share in the Brookshire Brothers partnership. Shop Wal-Mart.
It's cheaper. [3] The companies are no longer related except by
name.
