Meltdown at Soriana

[mr bill]

I really do not trust anything 'frozen' in local super markets. The Comercial - long before the Mega was here- never kept its freezers cold enough for ice cream. Open the door to grab a pint and it squished like a contianer of yogurt. The Mega arrived 4 years ago and things did not get better. In the open freezer bins the french fries are often squishy/semi to almost completly thawed. I've brought this to the attention of the manager but my comments fell on deaf ears even though I was standing in front of him with a floppy thawed example. COSTCO in Leon is no better. Once I bought a quart of Ben and Jerry's which seemed quite frozen. Placed it in our ice packed cooler for the ride back to GTO and it arrived here still frozen - but on serving it we found it was ladden with ice crystals a sure indication that it had suffered a meltdown somewhere along the supply chain. Knowing more deaf ears would be at Costco customer service I wrote B&J's in Vermont - they sent my sister a $5 coupon - valid only in the States.
