I've bought decent bread at Publix. They bake on site. French and
Italian. Might be local practices. Never found the ryes or black
breads we get baked locally here.
Selection is much better in Florida than it was 10-20 years ago.
I'm talking Charlotte Harbor area.

b. the high price of produce. I really thought we'd be paying a lot less
