Yeah, but it’s most visible in this pic on top. Just trying to point it out for someone who’s not seeing the problem.

I would forward this to the Central Connecticut Health District (covers Berlin, Newington, Rocky Hill, Wethersfield):

Charles Brown, Director of Health 2080 Silas Deane Highway Rocky Hill, CT 06067

Dept. Phone: (860) 785-8380 After Business Hours: (860) 721-2900
Fax: (860) 785-8533 Dept. Email: CBrown@ccthd.org Dept. Website: https://www.ccthd.org/

You’re drinking 24oz energy drinks but you’re worried about a little mold?

Send that into the Berlin Public Health division.

There’s a deli in Fairfield County that has a disgusting fridge as well, always a line outside to buy their food. Just my experience, disgusting fridge probably means you have a disgusting kitchen

Is that at the Food Bag on the Berlin Turnpike? Food Bags are always the most disgusting convenience stores. The one in Granby is especially greasy.

Berlin Turnpike has not historically been known for healthy, clean lifestyle choices.

If you've ever been in the back of that cooler you would rinse your can before you drank it...

Friendly reminder! Citgo doesn't own or operate a single gas station (at least in the US). That store and the chain is Atlantis Fresh Market/Atlantis Management Group based out of Berlin and Mount Vernon, NY. I'd take it up with them before wasting your time with Citgo for something they're not even remotely responsible for.

Source: I used to perform regular gas station maintenance at those sites lol

I don’t think folks consuming such drinks really care.

The "Berlin convenience and deli" on 372's fridges don't just have mold everywhere but they have it on the drinks too. The place is a cesspool. They also have a deli that sells cold cuts and mayonnaise based salads if that makes anyone Hungry.

If only you were inside. Worked at plenty of those locations before quitting, milk jugs, cans/bottles drop & bust open. No one cleans the floor, just pick up the broken merchandise, scan it out & go about your shift. 🤷🏻‍♀️

3.79 for a single nrg drink is outrageous.

Who told you to open it then rat you nosey fuck?

I never go inside but their gas is some of the cheapest in the state without needing to be a member, so I will usually go there to fill up.

Is this the one that’s now owned by Atlantis?

They are an abhorrent company. I literally had to call the police who had to call the fire dept and health inspector to rescue three elderly and vulnerable women from a property they were renting to them. They’re incredibly unscrupulous, and every single town should be fighting to keep them out.

OneHedgefundAtaTime t1_j25re3k wrote

Witness to this story. It is 100% true. Atlantis bought the foodbags and cuts corners to save money for their bigwigs. Our town fought them for 2 years as they tried to flip zoning from residential to commercial to install a 5,000 square ft gas station in NEIGHBORHOOD. They HAVE no scruples and as they infiltrate CT, they will bring their habits of shabby standards to everywhere they exist. They own over 650 gas stations in New England and are run by CROOKS.

The shit that is sold in those cans is much worse for your health than all that black mold growing on the shelves. That's the most disgusting part of this picture.

I’m pretty sure the majority of gas stations, convenience stores, and liquor store fridges look like this

And good luck getting anything done by approaching Atlantis. They’d kill their own grandmother for sport. Truly never before encountered a company who so perfectly embodies ruthless greed.

Is it the prices, the sugary drinks or the dirty floor? They're all pretty disgusting tbh

itswhatyouwill t1_j28yf0j wrote

Yes, I actually work at an Atlantis gas station. My store is definitely not this gross but the company and "management" is incredibly corrupt/inept. The more I read this post the more I want to find a different job. ive never seen a higher turnover from people quitting b/c of how awful it is to work there. Atlantis "fresh" Market / no bueno

edit: a word or two

bunkerbash t1_j291lcn wrote

I randomly bumped into a gal who used to do marketing for the foodbag chain. She said when Atlantis took over they immediately began treating the existing employees very poorly and cutting corners wherever possible. She quit pretty soon after the take over because of the work conditions.
