About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, a delivery driver was unloading crates of bananas when he noticed something strange. The bananas seemed to be whispering to each other in Spanish, their leaves rustling like little tongues. Curious, he leaned closer and heard them say, ‘¡Ayúdenos! Nos están secuestrando!’ Turns out, they were just talking about how much they hated being packed so tightly together. A regular customer overheard him laughing and asked if he wanted some help unpacking the rest of the bananas—turns out, everyone loves a good banana joke.
2. In the aisles of H-E-B one day, a little boy pointed excitedly at an unfamiliar fruit. ‘Mom,’ he whispered, ‘what’s that?’ His mother shrugged and replied, ‘I’ve no idea.’ A delivery driver overheard their conversation and leaned down curiously. 'That's a dragonfruit,' she smiled. The boy's eyes widened in wonder, while his mom sheepishly admitted, 'Never knew there were so many things I don't know!'
3. While stocking shelves late one night, a worker heard a voice whispering from behind the avocados. ‘Are these ripe yet?’ Curious, the worker turned around—and found no one there. Just an old banana peel on the floor. The next day, everyone in the store started asking if the avocados were finally ripe. Turns out, it was just a regular making a grocery list in his head.
4. While shopping for groceries one evening, a regular overheard two cashiers whispering: ‘Did you see that lady in aisle five? She picked up three cans of beans, then put down two… and suddenly her shopping basket filled with canned goods on its own!’ Curious, our regular followed the overflowing cart outside. As he approached, he saw an elderly neighbor pushing it, happily chatting away while rearranging cans into perfect rows. Turns out, she was just organizing her pantry stock for the winter.
