taterhole the architecture of Walmarts changed and moved the McDonald's closer to the entrances sans big yellow whimsical arches

Stew leonard’s

Have you ever walked around your grocery store thinking “where are the animatronics?” Well if you have, Stew Leonard has you covered!
Whether it’s the serenading Chiquita Banana, the harmonizing Avocado duet, or their band of farm-fresh dairy (pictured below), Stew’s delivers a rather musical shopping experience! And they have fresh, seasonal produce as well as a killer bakery selection. Whenever I have friends visit me at my childhood home, Stew’s always is the first place on our sight-seeing agenda.
