    Found two bones, including a rather large one, in a chicken salad sandwich made at Safeway in Damascus Md., on 3/22/18.
    Kevin S.

    You could say I have a bone to pick with this Safeway store. In fact, two bones. This store has better prices than the nearby Weis. And I haven't had too many problems until March 22 when I bought a chicken salad sandwich for my daughter. She ate about half of it, then discovered an almost two-inch-long bone. It's the longest bone I've seen in a 7-inch-long sandwich that should not have any bones in it. I googled to see if anyone had found any larger bones in a chicken salad sandwich, and the largest I found was a puny one-inch-long bone. She continued eating and found a second one, about one-inch long. That's when she stopped eating the rest of the sandwich, which is understandable. I would have stopped after finding the first bone. I have heard of people finding one bone in a chicken salad sandwich before, but two? It seems careless, to say the least. Good thing she caught them without choking on them.

    Storefront at night.

First, the fresh fruit section was small and the fruit was very expensive. So, I deducted a star. But, the store itself was pretty large. I did buy some strawberries and bananas. The surprises came in the ready to eat section. There was a ton of homemade soups, which looked delicious. I thought the prepared salads also looked really tasty. I ended up leaving with a Greek salad, which was fresh and delicious. Lots of feta cheese, lettuce, red peppers, olives and Greek dressing. Another, pleasant surprise was the bread section. There were a lot of freshly made breads. I bought a sourdough bread that was really good. It was hard to choose from the many different selections. The vegetable selections were plentiful and looked really nice. The service was excellent. I was checked out in a jiffy. My grocery helper was so nice and accommodating. The store was clean and well organized. I am sure the quality of food is higher, than a regular supermarket. I would probably return for the prepared foods and breads. But, the cost is pretty high. So, shop carefully.

    When the peaches call, you must go! Something in my body told me to check the website to see if…read morepeaches were ready earlier this week, and to my surprise, they had stopped the picking to allow more fruit to ripen. Do you know what that meant!? It means they had already started picking them and I was late! Again! I remembered to look again today and it said it was open but it might not last all day and they highly doubt there would be peaches available to pick for Saturday or Sunday. The website noted the late freeze in April didn't give them a great harvest this year. That meant RUN RUN RUN ‍ so that's exactly what I did. Although I missed two exits getting there SMH, I pulled up, changed my shoes, and opened my trunk to grab my little red wagon. To my dismay, it was not there! I could not believe it because how was I going to haul all my peachesand by myself?! I quickly called my mama and she told me she indeed still had its. I was heartbroken because I was already by myself and no one could come such last minute but now I have to somehow carry the heavy peaches through the field and the hot sun. I looked around and saw wheelbarrows but already knew they would be way too heavy for me to pull around the field so I quickly emptied a reusable bag for my box to go in, and headed to the stand. This year you have to purchase a entry band for everyone that is within the field. That $3 goes towards the farm and whatever they need. Years prior, container size you purchased dictated how many people could go into the field to cleft l collect for that box. Bigger box, more people. I noticed a sign stating I couldn't bring a tote bag in the field and the gentleman explained he would have to check it on the way out. I didn't really care about that and explained to him how I left my wagon and he offered for me to use one of their wheelbarrows. I declined at first because I knew it was going to be too heavy for me to haul around and I instantly had flashbacks of back in the day trying to move that thing. I decided to walk over and see how heavy it was. Guess what!? These wheelbarrows are so lightweight! They're not even made of steel LOL I was so happy and quickly grabed the wheelbarrow, put my box in along with my things, and headed into the field after paying. The smell of peaches fermenting has got to be one of my all-time favorites! It was a warm day today so I definitely took my time and tried to find shade as I picked my peaches. My box quickly filled up so I grabbed one, munched on it and then left after taking some video. What a quick visit. I knew my next stop was to grab my favorite peach butter so I headed to the store. They have less products this year and I wondered how our current climate has been impacting other farms which helps supply their store. They have a few different varieties of mushrooms all boxed for 10 bucks to include lion's mane, porcini, yellow trumpets and others. I made my way around the perimeter of the store and saw some of the usuals like beef jerky, beeswax candles, kraut, cheeses, milk and such. When I got to my favorite spot with my peach butter, there was none! The whole top shelf was empty! This has happened to me before and I had to come back. Hopefully I'll be able to grab some at a later date but if you go grab me a jar lol. I then started looking for to Taharka's ice cream and noticed a deep freezer with a sign indicating the ice cream was inside. I decided not to grab any because I wasn't too sure if I was headed straight home or not. The last time I had to eat both pints so that they didn't melt in my car . . . . . I can't wait for my next adventure at Larriland. The fall will be a great time to visit as well. Oh yeah, right now currently they have onions, tomatoes, potatoes, beets and some other pick your owns in season as well. Happy picking

    Despite telling us the picking was "good," the berries were small and the rows were picked over…read more Two adults spent almost three hours filling one flat because the open rows had relatively few berries. (Lots of moldy or rotten big ones to ignore.) We later found much more productive rows but were told those rows were not yet open. $4/person admission, $49 for a large flat, pay before you see the field. Disappointed.

Discounts are so easy to apply via their app. Plus you get 20% off coupons for filling five prescriptions there. Plus 10% for getting your vaccinations done in store. Oh and add on the free stuff that you can get via their app. Yes the store does need a bit of love, the freezers have dings, and the floor could do with retiling. But the food is in date and at great prices. Other stores tend to be less than fastidious about removing out of date produce. (I'm looking at you Giant!)

Which is fine, things happen but they need to make that clear when entering the store or at least possibly put signs up at the registers. Having to wait in line, go through the checkout process, and then after the debit card is not authorized have the cashier rudely state "you can't use debit" and when asking why she THEN states the system is down. I suggested that they need to have that information posted somewhere so that people are aware coming into the store. Did she even bother to acknowledge my suggestion? Nope didn't even look at me. Again, things happen but it's how they are handled that matters most.

    Not very Common for a market!!…read more Everything here is exceptional. I love all the fruit, I literally just ate a peach and was so compelled to write about it. The staff, while is mostly comprised of college age hippies are knowledgeable and actually care. The whole store is very clean and the meat counter while very small screams old school home made!! The sausages looked so good I had to buy some, and after cooking them up with some onions and peppers my neighbors above me who are vegans were peeking as they chewed their grass and had to rethink their decisions on eating food that my food eats. There are fresh made sandwiches that they will press for you and give it that grilled awesomeness that only comes when your doing something special with meat and cheese and good bread pressed with 400 degrees of steel resulting in a sandwich that makes you want to light a subway franchise on fire. Now on my most recent trip, covid is rampantly knocking off people so a lot of the fun stuff has been put away. Normally they have fresh cooked food that you can box up hot and take and eat. The selection ranges from American favorites like loaf of meat and spaghetti to Indian food to soups and salads ( spinach salad is good, the dressing makes it the bomb dot com ) and fresh cookies and breads oh my. ( Public Notice: no lions or tigers ) You will spend more money per item here than Walmart. They don't have as good of a selection as Wegman's. They don't have a coupon app thingy that makes you think your saving money like everyone else. But you will feel like your saving baby seals and once you leave and start to load stuff into your vehicle a rabbit will wink at you in a attempt to say thank you. The lesson here is pay more money for food that tastes like food and not canned crap. Yes, we all like to save money, and that's noble. But there is a time to eat your extra long chili cheese coney ( much love sonic ) and there is a time to bite into a peach and feel like your a little kid again and have wonderful sweet juice roll off your chin and life is once again, is worth living. Stay hungry my friends, - JW

Sandwiches can no longer be made to order. In fact, nothing is made to order anymore. Basically it went from being like chipotle, where you get your fresh ingredients the way you want them, to being like Taco Bell, where everything is already done when you get there and if you don't like it, that's your problem. This used to be such a great place for gluten-free eaters. Now if I want a gluten-free bagel, the only thing I am allowed to have on it is cream cheese. Period. I won't eat here anymore.
