A local
drugstore chain has tried to class itself up and expand into foodstuffs,
including portable consumables, some of which are on the level of gas station
sandwiches.
Like a month ago two townie women were behind me in the checkout line at the pharmacy in my neighborhood, this kind of
know-it-all (middle-aged) (white) woman of the type to have an attitude about
everything, and this kind of shrivelled up old (white) woman with a slight gray beehive
who was old enough to be the first woman's mother.
“Look at
that pineapple,” the middle-aged woman was like, pointing to a plastic box of
cut-up pineapple in a small cooler of ready-to-eat foodstuffs by the counter leading up to the
register. “You could get two whole
pineapples over at [grocery store across the street] for what you’d pay for
that.”
Then,
after a pause, she was like, “And I don’t trust that sushi either.”
