True. I like the varieties of bulk flour, nuts and seeds. The
shelves carry all kinds of goods from around the world. The cheese
selection is stupendous but so pricey. My weakness and salvation is
the bakery. They make all kinds of pastry and treats. My salvation
is that I can buy only one or two pieces and that's it. I don't have
a pan of the good stuff sitting on the kitchen counter begging to be
eaten. Of course, these treats will cost $2 a piece and up.
