Title: The "Piggly Wiggly" in Mississippi
Post by: classicrockgriller on February 01, 2010, 06:43:55 PM
One of the nice things about a "Road Trip" to a different part of the country

is visiting Grocery Stores to hunt for something new!

Found these at a Piggly Wiggly.

Some Seasonings.

Some Marinades.

Bought several jars of each .

I have had John Boy & Billy sauce before but never seen a marinade. The spicy bbq sauce is really good.

Nice to see the country's first "supermarket" is still going. Like Olds (who ain't as old as I am), I remember them from when I was a kid (but was lucky enough not to live in south Georgia).

Here's some usless information for you.

Piggly Wiggly was owned by a company (and they still may be) called Allied Supermarkets.

Allied Supermarkets operated most of the stores that were beside the K-Mart stores and they operated

under the name of K-Mart Foods.

So in a sense "Piggly Wiggly" was responsible for all the big discount stores (Walmart, K-Mart, Target) to

Handle groceries under the same roof as other products.

I am thinking a pantry cupboard with lots of places for storing small bottles and stuff
I have been gradually taking over a cupboards in the kitchen that is supposed to be for food !   LOL
Only drawback is kitchen cupboards that need replacing at some point and winding up with a pantry cupboard that does not work

If you're redoing your kitchen cupboards you might get the best of both worlds by putting spice racks in the inside of some of the cabinet doors.  It might cost 2-3 inches of shelf depth but it works for us.

We dedicated two multi-tiered shelves (one whole Top cabinet) for everyday Salts, Peppers, Seasonings, etc.

Have a 3W x 6H x 2D cabinet in the man cave for smoke stuff, and marinades, and odd stuff.
