Pueblo is a major Puerto Rican supermarket chain. I visited this store during my trip to Puerto…read moreRico some time ago. It was great to pick up some snacks for the road What surprised me was how similar the offerings here were to a typical supermarket in the states. I have tended to live in places with large Puerto Rican populations, so perhaps I'm used to offerings of produce (stuff like platanos, recao, etc.) that are more typical, but I was sort of surprised to find just about the same produce offering here as some of the stores I shop at back home. I found this a little disturbing because we're on an island in the Carribbean, a fundamentally different eco-zone, able to grow very different sorts of things...I'd expect to see more different types of tropical fruit, and fewer things like apples and pears...apparently people ship apples and pears and such really far so that people can eat them in the tropics...why they do so beats me, because I think the apples that get shipped long distances tend not to taste very good. Some (not even most) of the product packaging was in Spanish or bilingual, but there were a lot of the same products and there were not really all that many local brands and locally produced products. I wrote a blog post on the tea selection here: http://cazort.blogspot.com/2012/06/tea-in-puerto-rican-supermarket.html I think this experienced opened my eyes a bit to just how globalized and industrialized our food supply has become in the U.S. I ate lots and lots of really great, unique food when in Puerto Rico (probably my favorite thing of all was mofongo), but I was a little disappointed visiting this place. This supermarket struck me as just a typical, below-average-quality supermarket that I could find anywhere in the states.

I passed by 5 times by a group of 4 employees that were just chit-chatting. I finally gave up and asked for help. They seemed peeved that I interrupted their chat. What I assume was the store manager was very helpful as I was paying. The security officer outside was super helpful! My cart was so heavy I could barely maneuver it and he was very kind and took it to the curve so I could load things in the trunk. Oh, and hilariously, the customers have to pay .12 cents for shopping bags. Bags are a business expense, not a customer expense. I was stunned. It's a supermarket, not a warehouse, like Sams! Anyway, they have some very weird and frustrating rules in P.R.
