Horrendous grocery store. On top of the outrageous prices their produce and meat are never fresh and go bad quickly.

That's a shame. I used to live back there close to them like 10 years ago, and I recall their produce section being pretty solid.

The meat section was always shit.

Some things change, others stay the same.

The Heights needs better grocery stores. Stop and Shop is like 1/3 of the size it needs to be. I usually go up to Food Bazaar and ShopRite up JFK.

Yeah their meat and produce is the worst! And for some reason, they never have zucchinis.

We buy zucchini regularly from all the markets in our area. To state that Supremo "never have zucchinis" is a false statement. Please retract your error.

One must shop selectively these days. Supremo has products from Americas that are not easy to find at larger supermarkets. We prefer Lima beans from Peru. C town on Bergen south of JSQ has an interesting selection of products from other countries including Middle East (many Christian Egyptians in this area of JC but also other ME people and probably some authentic food available nearby).

I will correct to: “every time I’ve gone to Supremo in need of zucchini, they have not had any”
