Well, you know what I meant. I suppose there will always be degrees of
difference

However, when I buy all my veggies from a hand cart that comes to my house
every day brimming with the fresh stuff including fresh fruits that are in
season, milk that are milked in front of me daily, etc., bang in the middle
of a metropolis of 7-8 million inhabitants,  all these mass retailers can
only mean a serious drop in quality. We are already seeing it from our
homegrown clones of Walmart.

Cheers
Jayanand
