They let their employees drop acid on the job? Reminds me of this:

I have been known to stare , amazed, at their huge whole fresh fish in the cooler-case. They have a lock on the best bread, olive oils, and brewed coffee
in the Kerrytown district. I wish I would have tried their “German drinking vinegar” before I quit.

That Zingerman’s sign reminds me of the lyrics of the Joni Mitchell song, Coyote.
Coyote’s in the coffee shop
Staring a hole in his scrambled eggs
And he picks up my scent on his fingers
While he’s watching the waitress’s legs.

Do you have to
Do you have to
Do you have to
Do you have to let it linger…
Heard about a pelvic exam today. Now having the olfactory equivalent of a bad song on the brain. Along with the bad song.

Alas, Soup Sales is gone. Pies in the face will never be the same.
83. Years of illness. The Big C. Now it’s time to rest in peace.
