Could you please tell me where you go to the egg farm to get eggs

Really!? After the last three years of crap you have no problem with cross-contamination? Really?

Really.

As long as people don't breathe while shopping and cross-contaminate the air, I'm good.

Glad to have another grocery option. Sprouts color codes their shelf price tags to flag gluten free items, which is a thoughtful touch. Lot of items expensive, but some items I bought priced about the same as Winn Dixie, & I got a 20% discount by signing up for Sprouts app. Staff seemed a bit flustered by mobs of people, but were friendly & eager to help. Best of luck to store!

Happy Eggs for the HIGH holy days? Sounds like a cannabis dispensary. (Joking)

At our age most villagers are not interested in eating more healthy foods. Cheap food is all that most of us are looking for. Wish them well so that they spread out the shoppers to more food stores.

How long did Earth Mart last ? Same type of food .

I really liked Earth Fare, but it was very hard to get to with the construction on 441. I’m sure that contributed to their demise.

Now Sprouts is a quick golf cart ride away and I’m very happy about that. We’ve been twice. An employee said there was a 200 person line at 6:45am to get into the store on opening day. I think the crowds will soon be down to normal and I can leisurely shop for all the weird produce I want. Being a west coast girl I’m thrilled to see brands I haven’t seen since I moved away.

The location and road construction PLUS the plandemic probably were part of the demise. As for foods....some people actually have dietary restrictions (such as gluten intolerance) and buy what they need, not what they would LOVE to have. The demographics of T.V. shows more "wealth" and many folks can afford such stores as Sprouts. My parents probably wouldn't have shopped there but they also had a garden from which their produce came. Many of us didn't grow up in The Great Depression but have some (emphasis on some) of the affects of that being raised by parents who did. I, for one, will wait to check out Sprouts to let the crowds thin a bit. Oh...and by the way....it's Aldi and not Aldi's unless you're referring to plural. Yes, sometimes I'm a grammar "nazi".

Enjoy your pills more!
 

YEs enjoy all those pills you take instead of organic foods with no cancer causing garbage in it!

Some of us don’t process the residual pesticides, hormones, and preservatives as well as you must.
I personally am too well preserved : ) . I didn’t realize this was a problem until a few years ago. Now I am more aware and choose to avoid the crap .. at least most of the time. I respect others who choose food sources carefully. They likely have been enlightened.

The plus side is that I don’t take a lot of pills.

Not impressed at all. A lot of brands u have not seen and may want to try. DELI a joke, way to small area.

I have not been to Sprouts yet, but I'm sure I eventually will check it out. I discovered Earth Fare in Ocala shortly before the original company went under and found that while some items seemed high, their prices were reasonable, along with LOTS of great weekly specials. Thus I looked forward to the Lady Lake store opening, both before and after the corporate reincarnation. What I noticed about the local version was that it didn't seem to have as widespread a selection as what I had seen in Ocala and they seemed to suffer from the Villages Pricing Syndrome (even though they weren't located in Villages rental property) where they think everything can be sold at a premium to the "rich, bubble-bound seniors". I suspect and fear it will be similar when I explore Sprouts (especially since it is on Villages property and is accessible to the golf cart crowd). If such is the case I wonder how long they will last...

LOVE SPROUTS-Best produce value at Sprouts
 

Great fresh fruit and vegetables. Meat and fish specials are really good. Organic stuff is easily the best price at this store, if that’s your bag. A lot of vegan kinds of options- “near meat” etc.
Our Fave food store in Colorado.
Give it a try

Thanks for the review of Sprouts. Personally, I don't purchase "organic" food on purpose. Never felt I needed it. The previous generations in my family tree average an age in the '80's. My parents and their siblings have lived in their 90's, some still alive and active, will likely live to 100. None of them have taken "organic" seriously....just saying. I agree the poster that said that some of us shop prices. Not everyone in The Villages is wealthy, contrary to some of the posts/opinions. I also agree with the poster that says, maybe it will take some of the traffic from the other grocery stores we shop. The lines at the registers seem to be getting longer every year. I am curious as to what products they carry, so I will eventually take a look after the other curious crowd trickles down a bit. By the way, I take NO prescription meds so it seems that I don't fit the category of sickly due to contaminated food. I see my family doctor the mandatory once a year check up. Maybe Sprouts carries specialty food for those that have food allergies, which is something quite a few seniors seem to have here. It would be nice if some of the "regular" stores stocked more of that type of products.
Thanks again for the review. It might not be my cup of tea, but I am glad we have another option available.
