My zeal for blogging has in recent weeks and months, somewhat. One issue to me is commonplace for some time through my head and I decided to blog about:
Similar to daily hygiene and daily food intake, most people and I also shop almost every day. Biased by my parents house I always had a lot of food, its production, preparation and consumption do. Not long after I left Mom and Dad, I began my interest in healthy eating. In addition to the health and soon played a role in ethical issues for me. What could have been for food "healthy" when they made cruelty to animals and plants, artificial rearing Conditions arose.
early age, the age of 17, I decided to become vegetarian, or at least what I thought then that. It changed significantly is that I meat with my meals were left out. This "diet" was convicted two years later with the formation of shingles on my face. A doctor diagnosed a food shortage due to the lack of B vitamins and various other food ingredients. He strongly advised me after my therapy, my vegetarianism to provide a solid foundation. The food store was me by the doctor as an information source and product procurement, in terms of full-value nutrition for vegetarians recommended. The food shop on the main street in Heidelberg, this was about my first stop. Later, after many years of practical experience with my diet, I opened a health food store with a friend.
Shopping has always been for me, especially after the change in my eating habits, means more than low-cost product sourcing. Since I am in the vicinity of restaurants grew, I learned early on that the welfare of clients and staff in the stores, the addition to the quality and the price / performance ratio of products is of immense importance.
My shopping spots here in Frankfurt's North, both the ones I frequently visit and love, and those that I avoid more:
Basic
The is the Biosupermarkt with me around the corner. Ok priced to expensive. Baked goods are too expensive. The staff is only partially informed about the products, as well appropriate training would be a little more. At least there are enough staff that you can ask what it helps but if you do not always get the desired information. Because I feel at
Health Food Andersch
lifted one block better. Achim, the owner, cares very nice to his customers know almost all the products a story. He takes organic fruit and vegetables from the nearby Taunus and other neighboring regions of the Rhine-Main area. There
drugstores it right two on the Oederweg and several more in the neighborhood.
Schlecker
These markets I have visited only once. If there was a second purchase, only because I was too lazy to walk a road on. Informed and friendly staff? No way! I usually only hit a completely overworked and exasperated saleswoman at the counter and someone in the shop that / admits the shelves. Both had neither the time nor patience to help with any questions. This is not surprising if the negative news on the personnel policy of the company Schlecker is responsible. The blatant display, the one harassed often much too loud in these markets helps to make things for my too to prevent frequent purchases in these shops.
dm Drogerie
Hier ist es etwas anders. The interior is attractive, people who help a finding is there are enough and even the woman or the man at the box office despite stressful job very friendly and helpful. The prices are similar to those at other drug stores and in the relevant departments of the supermarkets. Also noteworthy is the wide range of foods and dietary supplements, mostly from organic production.
Aldi
Something has changed here. My previous perception has an acute shortage of staff be improved to the effect that at least always enough funds are occupied. Even organic products are to have, but without containing advice for cheap, I think.
Lidl
is a bit further away for me, but that does nothing. For similar reasons as in Schlecker, I will avoid shopping there more often (lack of personnel, intelligence to handle the company's management with employees and suppliers, etc.)
REWE
taken after the Tengelmann stores in my neighborhood all of Rewe were, my environment has become almost a supermarket monoculture. There are by me the nearest shops. Customers sound there, with annoying for my taste bad to mediocre music, is a reason for me only in extreme lack of time and only the bare minimum to buy there. At least after the horrible music for the third time of the announcement, " Rewe every day a little better! " was suspended from the sound system, I leave these markets in a hurry.
Tegut
Unfortunately, a bit further away from where I live. As often as I can and must and time permits, go / I go shopping there. Here There are subtle, often classical music, the choice is wide of organic and conventional products. The shop is full of competent people that it seems fun to consult customers on request. What's that mean to the staff room far visible and admonishing mounted wooden crucifix, I have to this day still can not fathom.
