It's the aisles and aisles of stuff you'd never find anywhere else, and their go ahead and dip the french bread in the olive oil display just don't double dip, and a whole mess of little things that set it apart from overpriced places like Whole Foods and places like ShopRite, which I love and has better prices, but it scams you at the checkout aisle, and Costco, which I know you like but lacks the selection and opportunity to buy things by the quarter pound. Fairway does have one drawback, though: It still doesn't carry truffle baloney.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
