Minnesota, actually.

For what it’s worth I don’t shop there. The one time I did I was unimpressed - that was the first time I’ve ever seen fruit flies in a grocery store. I also needed to go to my regular grocery store after and it was a huge timesuck.

Also, you're implying (2,000; 20,000) that you live in a rural area (that was the topic.) But there are a lot of suburbs of Minneapolis that seem to fit that bill.

I found Aldi to be perfectly fine, although you had to want whatever random stuff you got outside of a few fresh fruits. No flies at the ones I've been to, but that could just be because it's closer to a distribution hub? MN is the extreme ccorner of the area they serve.
