Jewel-Osco review: Food/service

I am a longtime Jewel shopper. I'm talking decades. I rarely have a problem and if I do, it is typically resolved quickly.

This is the second time I'm writing this year. Earlier I wrote about the horrible attitude of one of your employees who still works there, still spewing negativity every time I see him. But that's your problem because I have options. Especially since I live exactly midway between Jewel and Marianos...

This year I am noticing food quality that is just subpar. First I received spoiled blackeyed peas. Three weeks ago I purchased tuna salad from your deli which was also spoiled.

Yesterday I purchased a $6 meal of meatloaf, mashed potatoes and broccoli. The mashed potatoes were spoiled and the broccoli was on its last leg.

Someone in your facility needs to be more diligent with food safety. In the meantime, I'm taking a break from Jewel. The store is always empty, your staff continue to lack customer service skills. And I can spend my money elsewhere.
