One of the greatest treasures immigrants have ever gifted the united states is the Korean grocery store. 9 am and the doors open to a cornucopia of fresh vegetables and bright colorful fruit stacked high. Grocery store music is all absolute kpop bangers cranked louder than you'd expect. Fresh fish on full display, anything you want and more. The ramen library teetering by the wall of tea, the enticing ability to buy a 30lb jackfruit just because its there, and an endless row of rice cookers and crockery. And you're not getting gouged for any of it.

The real challenge is not getting destroyed by a 4' tall Korean granny with murderous intent as she stalks from aisle to aisle at lightning speed.

So as the big brand supermarket strikes intensify, please do check out the Korean grocery store.
