I never mind stopping in at Vons, Its is vibrant store in the Kern River valley always busy. Vons is staffed by friendly locals It features a Starbucks outstanding deli, bakery, produce, meat, non foods liquor and grocery departments. The store supports many local activities in the valley.

When I put them in a bowl, half of them were moldy. The lettuce was brown inside when I split in half. Bag of potatoes several were rotten. Went to Vons at 8 pm, no baskets, they were being used to block off a section in store. The cashier told me to look in the parking lot (I'm 70 yrs). No customer service. No milk (sale) re stocked. 3 heads of lettuce (all bad). No frozen veggies were restocked (on a Wednesday when the sale deals should be stocked). These incidents have occurred in the last 3 wks at the Vons in Lake Isabella.

I came down yesterday morning The in-laws coming for dinner so I go the fave store and there's trash everywhere dirty as fuck. Not stock at all and I can seem to find no one to help me at all everywhere there a zombie apocalypse store. I think even if I have to pay extra I will have to change of store Vons it is. Very disappointed. Nothing like two years ago. This store was blooming happy faces everywhere people stoking people helping each people service was just nice. Now they just need better service and more man power willing. To work for the people that really want better service in a good cleaner environment and better stock store. Farewell G. O.

Bodfish!…read more Bodfish??? What the hell is a "Bodfish"? Well folks, turns out it's a "census-designated place" (not even a town, how about that!!) near Lake Isabella with a population of just 1956, as of the 2010 Census. If you're still lost, it's approximately 32 miles (That's ALL it was?) east-northeast of Bakersfield, up in the mountains. Now I'm sure you are asking "what were you doing there?" Yes I was wondering the same thing. LOL I went to look at (and buy) a vintage washing machine and this is where it was... out in the boonies! After I got it loaded and started heading back toward civilization, I see this little local market and decided to stop and grab some munchies for the 3.5 hour drive to San Luis Obisbo. http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/country-korner-market-bodfish-2?userid=Jcbj338NjXtSiqvK3LYghQ#gM9a7g9RBgYClfXnUmMb_w I walk in and the guy behind the counter smiles and greets me. I look around and grab a Nemo's Banana cake (haven't had one in years, YUM), some peanut M&M's and a bag of Cheetos puffs. The guy rings me up, I pay and I'm on my way out the door. It's a cute little store and has what you'd expect from a korner market in a little, out of the way place like Bodfish..... snacks, nibbles, munchies, sodas, beer, wine and what-not. http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/country-korner-market-bodfish-2?userid=Jcbj338NjXtSiqvK3LYghQ#MVQXY3c6rnp3g-29J_QEwQ It was a nice little store, I'm glad I stopped!
