How much do you want them to carry for and ethnic group that numbers less than 1% of the local population. I own no Publix stock but sure do wish you a happy Pesach!

sorry you assume I'm being ridiculous and shopped late, stop being condescending! I like fresh food and shop almost daily, so no I missed nothing!!!
YOU obviously didn't get any of those things in the Colony Publix which didn't have any matzoh on display for passover. You could continue to call me a liar if you wish, but that is and was the situation, and no I certainly do not wish to check your cupboard.

Oh and by the way..they didn't have one box of manischewitz and still don't.

Less then 1% of the local population? Where did you get that number?

What do these figures mean??? That no one attends the Temple in TV??

[jblum315]

Means that the figure is not statistically significant, not enough to count

You would have to pose that question to the source. I'm just presenting what I found, so please don't shoot the messenger Bogie Shooter!

If you want an opinion from me, the only opinion I gave or will give though is that with a 0 percentage, I'm presuming that they have no statistics to record or that there wasn't enough population to register a percentage... concluding IMHO that it's unlikely that there is anything near a 1% population, but I'm definitely not presuming that there's no Jewish population in TV.

If your wish would be to bring a good feeling to people about your faith or your customs or your ethnic background you could try to talk and act in a little more diplomatic way when matters such as this happen.

The Colony Plaza Publix I am told have broken all records of sales and are the busiest of all Publix stores and take in a million dollars a week. (I have been told this by people who I know well and who were not drinking) The growth in that area is absolutely phenomenal. The Villages of St.James, Tamarind Grove, Bonifay, Charlotte and Fernandina weren't there last Easter or Passover. I bet they will be stocked nicely next holiday season.

That is my opinion.

When we go shopping if we can't find something we want at that store we will visit one of the other 8 or 9 grocery stores in the immediate area. Every store can not carry every item for every person. I really hope that your celebration was not ruined by this particular store but know that you have many other options available to you.

Was in the Publix in the Colony Plaza yesterday. In the front of the store near the bakery there were several shopping carts filled with reduced price Easter and Passover items which included several boxes of Matzoh.
