JD...

Publix house brand of ice cream and frozen yogurt is pretty darn good and it's still a true half gallon (unlike the 48-52 oz cartons of the 'national' brands). We buy the light variety... tiramisu, lemon cookie, mint cookies and cream.

I like their french baguettes in the bakery..only $1.19 ... cheapest around and pretty good.

We like sourdough bread for sandwiches.... they have a sourdough sliced round loaf in the bakery that is the best of the sourdough around...still not great, but passable.

For service deli meats, I prefer Sweetbay to Publix. SB has good quality and their deli prices are much better than publix. SB also makes a mean sub for a very reasonable price. Full Sub (probably16" long) for about $5.50 and half sub for about $3.50.

I do miss Trader Joes :-(
