LOL. In our old neighborhood we used to go to this place called Madison Market not far from downtown. It's kind of a local smaller scale Whole Foods, touting all organically grown stuff; there are rows upon rows of off branded whole wheat pasta, organic sesame oils, wheat germ, etc. The magazine racks are laden with "Mother Earth," "The Nation," etc. You tell the checkers you want "plastic" and they look at you like you're a mass murderer. Then the checkers and stockers are covered with tatoos and piercings, their skin is this waxy pallor, dark circles under their eyes, bones about to burst through their skins, etc.
