Sorry if this has already been posted...I thought it might be a good idea for people to start listing places in thier area that have good eats.

With as many people traveling during the work week, this could be useful Tool...

This is based on personal experience with many of the wholesalers in the Philadelphia area. I would never eat at an oriental restaraunt in Philadelphia; even if you paid me. Please, take my word for it. The warehouses that I have been in for work have nearly made me vomit on the owners of these places.

Some things that I have experienced first hand:

1. Animals living on food that is being sold to customers
2. Birds living in the rafters
3. Standing water in these distributors
4. Animal urination on the food (broccoli)
5. Non refrigerated delivery vehicles
6. Rats and mice living in these warehouses
7. Cats and Dogs living in them to kill rodents
8. Expired or nearly expired inventory
9. Retched smells

 

Oriental?
