It is evident by the reviews before mine that people in today's social climate could greatly…read morebenefit from cultural sensitivity training. I went to this area, new to Cedar Rapids wondering why people would call an area ghetto simply because Black people live there. I was immediately skeptical based on the comments, but was met by people of many cultures and walks of life who spoke as they passed. Some smiled. NOTHING is scary about this area so ignore the ignorance preceding my review. If you're afraid of people who don't look like you, stay in your bubble and disengage from society period. Anywho, enough about foolishness from foolish people. I ADORE ALICIA and really appreciate how she went out of her way to help me and answer my questions. There is a wide array of products, many specials and discounts, and the prices are great! I always come in for one thing and leave with 7 or 8 when I go to stores like these! There is parking on the side near McDonald's and in the rear so it's pretty convenient to get to. I will be a frequent customer and am SO GLAD I CAME!

How far into the Cedar Rapids ghetto am I willing to venture for mint chocolate chip malted milk…read moreballs? Two blocks (which is essentially into the heart of the ghetto). I was also searching for some supplements for my mom, but lets not kid ourselves, I was there for the malted milk balls. The health hut still has a fabulous selection of vitamins, supplements, and hard to find health foods. The parking lot in the back is very convenient, since the store is right on 1st Ave and there isn't really any parking in front. However, the parking lot appears to be a hangout for the locals. It's not exactly Cabrini Green, but I wouldn't walk around here alone after dark (or after noon, actually). The staff is always very helpful, they seem to really know what they're talking about and care about their customers. They aren't just there to sell you something.

I also wandered into the Co-Op and ended up with a few snacks to tide me over before the College of Engineering family event. I found it a little small as far as Co-Ops go, but there were still lots of healthy choices. Half the fun was listening to a bunch of well educated and interesting store staff and customers talk. That's one of the cool things about University towns.

They're housed in the same area as big boy Meats and they offer tons of different carnivorous options. The guys in the sausage Foundry specifically are obviously porcine Masters and it shows with the sorts of offerings they have. Their beer brats are solid and use beer from a local Brewery. Every week they have between 2 and 4 new varieties of brats. Most recently smoked sriracha, bacon and blue cheese and mushroom and Swiss graced our plates. It's really need to see how much pride these guys take in their work and how they are looking for new varieties and ways to push the envelope a little with something as simple as a sausage.
