Have you read the other posts where people have commented on places that have salad bars? I don't have a complete list, but many of them were removed because of COVID. Some have returned and some have not.

No one remembers "Sweet Tomato" on 441? The mother of all salad bars!

Yes, we did. Remember, we have no anti-COVID rules here in Florida. The food stores eliminated them to protect you from other unvaccinated shoppers with no masks.

Winn Dixie in LSL has one, just like before. Never saw one in any of the Publix.

The new Publix on 466A next to Lowes has a dining area upstairs where you can eat...

That’s not a salad bar, it’s a feeding trough of carbs and grease.

Default There are salad bars

When the lockdowns started, salad bars disappeared. But, I know the Publix, at both Rt 441 locations, have returned. Haven't been back in Winn Dixie for a while, but have to assume they have, also

The salad bars offer a excellent way to eat healthy if you skip the meat and the other high fat items. The health benefits far out weighs the risks from contamination.

And if you are one of those germaphobes then you may want to give your kitchen a close inspection especially if you bring in raw meat. You can never clean it all up the contamination.
