The past 12 months have involved a lot of conversations about groceries. Which stores have the basics in stock? Whatâs the best way to shop safely?Â
Two of the major chains that serve Nashville made national headlines in recent weeks â not for toilet paper shortages, but for politics and economic justice issues. Julie Jenkins Fancelli, daughter of Publix Super Markets founder George W. Jenkins, put roughly $300,000 toward the Jan. 6 Trump rally in Washington, D.C., that preceded that dayâs insurgency at the U.S. Capitol. Kroger has made headlines for closing select stores in municipalities (not Nashville) where hazard pay for grocery workers has been mandated.
