		<description><![CDATA[The fact is there is no competition
There would be if Lindos opened 
Sundays and later than 8pm like 
stores in rest of developed world but
 Bermuda for some reason is special...
So we have marketplace owned 
by a tired uninspired group of folk who 
clearly make more than enough off the business 
Overpriced 
Super-mart which does well with the well heeled 
Miles ...ditto
Arnold’s is essentially booze and convenience 
And Lindos for rest of us ... when it’s open
Not a one of them offers reasonable 
deals ... all we get is ‘spacials’ ...ie stuff 
about to go off so its discounted
bongo deals, never heard of that here sadly 
Marketplace hasnt renovated or redesigned
 in centuries ... the stores are so 
depressing and icky it’s torture to go thru them
Lindos is a mess as it’s always so busy
I have t even started on prices
V
But one thing working against our 
governments efforts is sales at 
grocery stores are way down... shelves are emptier, 
less people clearly shopping f
so dont expect them to come to the table with any relief anytime soon]]></description>

1. No, Minister, peanut butter and mayonnaise cannot be considered &#039;essential&#039; food supplies, even in Bermuda
2. Of course they can.  This my families favourite - Bermudas Best mayonnaise.  It&#039;s the bestest
