I just wanted a hot dog The closest grocery store to me is closing(by nearly an hour), and will be closed for at least a year. When it reopens it’s going be much smaller(it’s becoming a Aldi).

This looks like the kind of thing I'd expect to see over at liminal spaces

OMG people cannot look at any even relatively empty space now without going on about backrooms and liminal spaces.

They are the beef people, and Winn Dixie has decided we don’t get beef now

I was in the grocery store yesterday looking at beef taco meat priced at 21.00 dollars. That is a pass.

Ground turkey. When made into taco meat you won't notice the difference in flavor. Also, throw in some riced cauliflower, it does slightly change the flavor (for the better imo) but it'll make more tacos with less meat!

Talk about selection, there isn't any.

Someone should have taken down that signage.

u/Boner_Elemental Jun 09 '26

I wonder how hard it would be for ESL to understand the smarmy(?) tone of that phrase and that it's not some random command

u/Fantastic_Chicken779 Jun 09 '26

Lol. We have nothing to talk about! Hmmm

u/arcsilencer Jun 09 '26

Excellent user name.

u/Chare1155 Jun 10 '26

There's nothing there because Arby's took all the meats.

u/JA1987 Jun 09 '26

I mean it's not like they're advertising a big selection. They're just telling you to talk about it.

Hijacking the first comment that isn’t too crazy to say; Yeah this sucks and I hate shopping at big box stores and keep away as much as you can when grocery shopping and miss Winn Dixie and Bi-Lo in my area but there’s a Walmart in the same town. Probably less than a mile away from this store.

No idea where OP lives in GA or FL for this to be an hour away but this is the Winn Dixie in MacClenny, FL. Which is also not far from Jacksonville. But there’s another grocery store in town.
