POWER OF MEAT – VERBATIM
Varietyy A section that is hormone, antibiotic-free meat More meat selections from local farmers
H f h ild i l t d lt Have more fresh, wild animal meats and poultry I would like to see more types of fish and more
variety of beef and beef cuts that specify what sort of dishes it is for
I would love to buy lamb, but can never find it, except for tat the local farmer’s market. Would be a lot easier to buy it at my grocery store. Maybe run a specialty meat sale every week, something different every time
POWER OF MEAT – VERBATIM
QualityQ y Be more careful to get consistent cuts and stop hiding
the worst pieces on the bottom or tuck gristle underneath where we can’t see itunderneath where we can t see it
I want quality, value and green. Meaning: local meats, no dyes or added water, not weighted down with fat excess skin or boneswith fat, excess skin or bones
Cleanliness Keep the department squeaky clean! Put the courtesy no-mess bags somewhere what I can
reach them instead of two feet above my head Keep sanitary wipes and bags stocked Eternally out Keep sanitary wipes and bags stocked. Eternally out
