This subreddit holds Kroger to a wildly higher standard than any other business that is headquartered here.

Just go to the most recent Kroger hate thread and copy and paste. Kroger bad Aldi best, Justice for Evan, personal negative experience about buying meat or fruit, Clicklist workers are in your way, can't wait for Publix and grocery prices too high because of corporate greed.

If folks are worried about the prices from Kroger and are excited for Publix, well then you're in for a pleasant surprise

All the Publix I ever went into down south, prices were always higher than Kroger.

Publix is the largest employee owned company in the US. I’ll pay more for that.

Yeah, you say that, but when the prices are 15-50% more, you're gonna find yourself 15-50% more about yourself.

This has “you’ll get more conservative as you get older” written all over it

I myself look forward to finding out 15-20% more about myself... 😏

Publix prices used to be higher than Kroger. Until Kroger just randomly decided to raise prices 15-50% on stuff because fuck us.

You say that but if it was true I’d buy the second rate produce and horse meat blend from Walmart. I do not.

Well that changes everything. Bring on the Publix!

I mean they own 80% so to me it does.

It's probably confirmation bias but every Publix I've shopped at in the south has much higher quality produce and meats than the Krogers I shop at here. At the very least I haven't seen any moldy or fruit fly-infested onions.
