"Ma Na Ma Nah...do doo de doo doo--Menomonie!" (The Muppet Show)…read more Statler: "Is she singing? I thought she was choking!" Waldorf: "At her age, it's hard to tell the difference! DOHOHOHO!" If you just sang that ditty in your head like the Muppets, you're already in the right mood for a visit to the Menomonie Food Co-op Market. This market is as effortlessly fun and cool as Janice from Electric Mayhem, but with less trout pout and more lentil dip. "Fer sure!" Here are the highlights that you really don't want to miss! THE BREAD SITUATION: The artisanal rosemary sourdough loaf from One Love Bread is the stuff boy bands are made of. This bread is basically what happens if you roll Harry Styles in flour and water. It really deserves its own Manchester disco-dancing fan club, but for now I'll just sing its praises. DAIRY AND DAIRY ALTERNATIVES: I was totally NSYNC with this section. I'm not even sure what plants half of them came from, but they looked intriguing. Had I brought a cooler, my fridge would have undergone quite the calcium glow up! SODA ALTERNATIVES: This was the real Big Time Rush! We studied the sodas for a solid ten minutes like raccoons who'd discovered a vending machine. There are flavors and brands here I've never seen in the wild...some with names I can't pronounce (but absolutely bought)! The store was very clean and organized, and if the employees had been any friendlier, they'd have been covered in yellow feathers. In summary: great bread, fantastic selection, kind humans, and a soda aisle that deserves its own documentary. 5/5, will return. Probably for more bread. Definitely for more weird soda. Statler: "That was a long review!" Waldorf: "I wanted it to end five minutes ago! DOHOHOHO!" Ma Na Ma Nah.

The ice cream (which they make themselves) was okay. Nothing to really write home about. It was relatively expensive, and probably not worth the price. Also the service was not to great. The selection of homemade candy and popcorn was very large. I did not try it though. Overall it wasn't bad, but not really worth my time. That does not mean it's like that now, though.

There is a patio out back for warmer weather. You can also buy the beer to go. No wine or liquor.

Being from Colorado she has really been missing the Mexican food she grew up on, so for her to be this excited about this salsa I had to try it. We went to all the stores that was suppose to carry this one salsa she liked so much but they didn't have it so we went to the "Kitchen" in Banbury. There we met the staff ( more than charming and funny) They were very helpful and thankfully had the " Ghoulicious". We bought 3 jars for my trip home and my daughter's friend bought 3 jars. Extremely good and great in meatloaf or stuffed bell peppers. Gave some to my neighbor who is Hispanic and she loved it and wants more. So far everybody here in Colo. that I have shared my jars with want more so I guess I'll be ordering more .
