Mayor Zohran Mamdani announced his plan to open a $30 million city-run grocery store in the heart of New York City. While that may seem like a lot of money, this isn’t your average Kroger.
Take a look at the following list of amazing features the new taxpayer-funded grocery store will have:
-
Choice of two different brands of products: Have your pick between carrots or potatoes.
-
A mandatory 3-hour wait time at the register to ensure fairness across all lines: Finally, justice for all.
-
All the cashiers will be ex-cons out on work release: Checkout has never been more exciting.
-
Claw at the exit that turns you upside-down and shakes loose change out: Every penny counts.
-
Produce section that’s just a bunch of dirt for you to grow your own veggies: You’ll have fresh veggies in just six months — if the hobos don’t get to them first.
-
Line where you can hang out for several hours and get a free loaf of bread: It’ll be a throwback to a bygone era.
-
Frozen food aisle occasionally thawed to promote climate awareness: Finally, a grocery store that’s conscious of its carbon footprint.
-
Groceries in your cart will be intermittently redistributed to other people’s carts: No one should ever have more than someone else.
-
The cleanest empty shelves anywhere in the city: Truly a cut above the rest.
With perks like these, that hefty $30 million price tag seems like a real bargain. What else do you expect Mamdani’s store to have? Post your suggestions in the comments.
