Kroger is one of my favorite stores where the produce is fresh and reasonably priced.
Chimney Rock store was one I had not visited and on passing I stopped to get some food.
A real nice layout with plenty of fresh veggies and cheaper than my local store.
"Remolochas Nelmanojo" Well, I wondered what that was???
I asked a smart looking guy in a white shirt and badge (probably an assistant manager, I couldn't pronounce his name ??)
Could you tell me, is that some kind of a new vegetable?
A blank unbelievable look replied, "Its translated under the title, SIR, see SIR. THERE !"
< : -( OH, sorry, I didn't notice it said "Bunch of Beets." 000000 Lower Case ?
I proceeded to learn my Mexican and thought y'all may find it a help as someday we may not have the privilege of seeing it translated.
Habas Verdes = Green Beans.
Verdes De La Mostaza = Mustard Greens.
Lechuge Roja De La Hoja = Red Leaf Lettace.
Agrupan Los Rabanos Rojos = Bunch of Radishes.
Manojo Del Apio = Bunch of Celery.
Cebollas Verdes = Green Onions.
I ran out of paper to write on and out of breath I decided to get some cookies.
Barras de Higo = Fig Bars Kroger distributed but WHO MANUFACTURES THEM ??????
Check out time and I stood listening to the store music of Muncho, Muncho something until I got the attention of the two (Mexican nattering) check out clerks who were more interested in a "Talk session" than checking me out.
Will I shop there again??? Sure, Now I know what a Bunch of Beets are called.
You're never too old to learn.
It would be nice if the Translation in Mexican was written below our Native Born English.
Pls. spare me "They are only catering for the local majority of ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS"
My response - Try pandering to the American Shoppers who made it all possible.
Anyone else had this experience ?????
