Thought this as well, but Whole Foods is actually cheaper for most things.

Quality kinda sucks though. Market Basket is GOATed. I go to HMart for the cheap citrus on clearance (6 pieces assorted citrus for $1! But use them within 3 days.)

Unfortunately there’s no market basket within easy walking distance of central (that I’m aware of). If you live near central your only walkable options for grocery stores are hmart and Whole Foods.

No!!!! Check out Daily Table — they have plain staples and are extremely cheap and I think mildly subsidized in some form

The way is Daily Table for staples (eggs, milk, vegetables, some meats) and Whole Foods for any other fancy stuff they don't have, evens out to be about the price of a normal grocery store.

It’s literally 15 mins walk from Central Square

It's 30 minutes / 1.5 miles each way from Central.

I like walking but fuck that for groceries.

During the pandemic, I would walk to MB and then Uber back (whenever safe). It wasn’t a bad practice for once every week or two.
