Publix is a bit more costly, to be sure. But their overall quality is excellent. My only gripe at Publix is the long lines at the deli counter. I'd say they could do something but speed things up but the employees in back of the counter are already almost bumping into each other.
I agree about the Publix deli counter, but at least they have a number system. Winn Dixie does not. I have often wondered why people buy cheese at the deli counter. What is the difference between the deli cheese and pre-packaged cheese? They have a huge selection of packaged cheese, so why have the deli person slice cheese for you?
