I purchased the contents here for making a 2-Alarm chili, which is dee-lish by the way, and while shopping I also noticed that tiny stores like this in tiny towns like this, for whatever reason, always seem to be launching pads for either new, or strange and unusual products. At least this has been my experience through the years. Example: While browsing through this store, I noticed they were selling sour cream-flavored Doritos, as well as a new flavor of Doritos called Salsa Rio. Of course, I purchased both! And both flavors...are awesome! Now, I have seen these particular products in bigger stores and in bigger places since, but I saw them first here...at the Piggly Wiggly...in Plain Dealing...on New Year's Day! And why not shop here?...It's a Piggly Freakin' Wiggly! Piggly Wiggly rules!!!

Never! Especially in hectic times of a possible impending natural disaster...but it happened here, at the Vivian Wal Mart, where all lanes are open, the checkers are cheery and Unicorns roam the store...

The thoughtful son I am, I volunteer to head down to the local grocery store to stock her up before I leave, and buy ingredients for the dinner I offered to cook (meatloaf, in its bacon-topped glory - http://static3.px.yelp.com/photo/3MfWxSF-IvWCHBiN-UkMag/l ). So which store? Ralph's? Nope. Albertsons? Nada. Brookshire's is the place...that's how they do groceries south of the Mason-Dixon. It's your standard grocery store; clean, well laid-out, with a nice meat department (all butchering and grinding is free), a nice fruit and vegetable section, as well as the usual mix of national and store brands. So you won't have any problem getting that DiGiorno (not delivery) frozen pizza, Cheetos, or whatever else you've got a taste for. And like any market, they have items to appeal to the local clientele. Need fresh calfs' liver? Maybe some live crawfish? A gallon jug of sweet tea? Or the latest copy of Chewin' Tobacco and Shotguns Weekly? Okay, I made that last one up, but either way, Brookshire's will cover you. One other thing to note, especially if you're a SoCal native. Here, the employees are a little strange. They say things like "Hi!" and "Can I hep' ya find anything?" on a regular basis. And once they've rung you up and loaded your groceries in the cart, they take the groceries out to your car and load them for you, smiling the whole time. Having lived in SoCal all my life, people being that nice (without charging me for it) automatically puts me on the defensive. But it's cool - the people here are just very nice and helpful. Just come on in, and do your shopping while enjoying that legendary Southern hospitality.
