Only a fool or someone so incredibly rich should donate to this. This place was poorly run, but also insanely expensive for its entire existence.

I used to live a couple blocks from this place for several years, and they came in clutch as far as lines go in the early pandemic days. The part where they didn’t come in clutch was when I got laid off in March 2020 and my grocery bills went from $110/week to $170 all while having significantly less options and sometimes needing to go to a regular grocery store anyway because they’d be out of chicken, lemons, or some other super basic food you’ll be guaranteed to need in a week. Selling $10 bacon and still having money issues can only mean it’s poorly managed.

I’m sad this didn’t work out considering it’s definitely in a food desert, but maybe this will open an opportunity for someone else to give it a try in the coming years
