Ick! Poor you!

BTW, for Americans, I bought some pork chops at Albertsons - they were
soft, tender and juicy, and obviously jammed full of saline (that was
not listed on the packaging...) No more Albertsons pork chops for
us... but last week I looked in Publix and their pork proudly
proclaims 'minimally processed' - it wasn't juicy and it wasn't
particularly tender (my bad - I overcooked it because it was so thin
and I got distracted) but it didn't come out tasting like somebody
spilled the salt shaker. I already prefer publix bacon because their
'low sodium bacon' really is - the stuff in Albertsons may have 30%
less salt than their regular one, but it's still inedible. And
Albertsons bread is FOUL sugary cardboard, but Publix has fresh-baked
bread that actually tastes like God intended it to...

I know where I'm going to be getting my groceries from now on!
