Passover at Woodman's

Somehow it seems that we have not yet posted in this space about the glory that is Woodman's Food Market in Appleton. Granted, NYC dwellers are used to small supermarkets and narrow aisles, but there are plenty of decently-sized, big box supermarkets up here. Festival Foods majors in fresh produce and Packerphilia, Pick 'n' Save has a huge selection of junk food, and the Piggly Wiggly has Broccoli Wokly. But Woodman's has everything. For example, everything includes this:


But for the moment, I just want to point out what a freaking huge Passover section there is for a state with a grand total of 28,330 Jews, most of whom seem to live 90 minutes south in Mequon. On the other hand, the two biggest celebrities featured at Appleton's nearby history museum were both Jewish.

Anyway, here is the usual "Jewish" section of the first (of two) "international" aisle:



here's some more holiday stuff including some giant boxes of matzo



and here's a whole section on the side of the aisle for holiday junk food! 4 kinds of macaroons!



More on the wonder of Woodman's (employee-owned!) at some future date.
