Shopping at Publix
Since I was a child I have always enjoyed grocery shopping. Walking in to a well-lit, very clean grocery store was always a pleasure to me. There is only one store that I have found in today’s world that fits that profile for me. The store that I enjoy shopping in the most, is the
Publix grocery store. The store is always inviting, clean and very well-lit. The staff is always friendly and willing to do what it takes to help you enjoy your grocery shopping experience.
Unfortunately, where I live, we do not have a Publix grocery store. But when I get the chance to go to Publix, I’m like a kid in a candy store.
Usually my first stop in Publix is the bakery. Publix sets up their stores so that the bakery is the first area you would start shopping in as you enter the store. They want to make sure you smell the fresh baked bread, donuts, cookies and pies enticing your appetite so you will buy more groceries. . The display cases are filled with all my favorite bakery items. The glazed donuts, chocolate donuts, cakes and pies are all on display, just inviting you to make a purchase. Publix puts all their fresh baked breads together. I so enjoy picking up a loaf of my favorite white mountain bread, that was just sliced and still warm in the bag. I am a bread junkie and enjoy a warm slice of fresh baked bread with butter. And, they do offer samples.
The next area of the store that I enjoy is the deli. I just happen to love Publix spicy hot chicken wings. They are breaded, deep fried and very meaty. I also just love fried chicken. Their chicken is hot, fresh and comes in a few different varieties. You can get garlic, herb or chipotle

just to name a few. The smell of the chicken to me is just amazing. The deli makes many different types of salads too. You can get a really good potato salad, macaroni salad,
