I lean toward the market feel. It’s so much more welcoming and I feel more accomplished lol. The open air feels more inviting and just bustling in the throng of people is fun.
Supermarkets in Malawi 🇲🇼 are relatively small. The staff is not that motivated which is understandable. It breaks my heart how they have to be so mechanical for hours.
Not to say vendors are free of worries and disadvantages though.
My twin works at a grocery store, so we shop there because employee discount.
We sometimes go to farmers markets though for fresh produce or produce the grocery doesn’t sell. Like winesap apples for canning apple butter.
I’m now imagining you going to the grocery store, pretending to be your twin, to get the employee discount. 🙃
I don’t have to pretend! I am a family member so I can just get the discount!
I love me a puree, will definitely co sider making apple butter.
