The World Went To Hell When Pantry Pride Went Away
-
When I was a kid, A&P was the biggest grocer, period. Then Pathmark came in and everyone went there for the big clean superstore. Then... well, you know, which is why it may be sad but not surprising that A&P (which now also owns Pathmark) is reportedly filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in a pre-packaged plan that will spin various locations to various competitors. Things change, and, frankly, if your store becomes a ShopRite or Stop and Shop, you'll probably be happier with it, but it's always jarring to see another institution of olden days sink like this.
