About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One day, as a little boy pushed his shopping cart down the aisles of Kroger, he stopped abruptly and pointed excitedly. ‘Mom,’ he whispered, ‘look at those bananas waving!’ His mother smiled, thinking it was just her imagination playing tricks on her. As they approached the fruit section, another customer overheard and chuckled, saying, 'They're not waving, son—they’re just having a banana conversation!' The whole family burst out laughing, realizing that sometimes our minds play tricks on us. That night, back home, they told their neighbors about it, and soon everyone in the neighborhood knew about the talking bananas at Kroger.
2. One morning, an elderly gentleman named Mr. Jenkins was pushing his grocery cart through Kroger’s produce section when he exclaimed, ‘I swear, these bananas are getting taller every week!’ Just then, a young delivery driver walked by and laughed, saying, 'Mr. Jenkins, those aren't bananas—those are pineapples!' A moment of silence followed before everyone burst out laughing. From that day on, whenever anyone saw Mr. Jenkins in Kroger, they’d tease him gently about his banana-pineapple mix-up.
3. One afternoon, while a delivery driver unloaded boxes in the backroom, he noticed something peculiar written on one crate: ‘Warning: Groceries May Cause Weight Gain.’ Curious, the driver opened another box and found a note inside: 'Caution: Excessive Shopping May Lead to Insufficient Cash.' Overhearing his colleague’s laughter, they both looked around guiltily—only to see their supervisor smiling knowingly. The next day, everyone brought their own lunch.
4. One night, a young man was stocking shelves after hours when he heard strange noises coming from the dairy section. Curious, he peeked around the corner and saw only shadows dancing on the walls. Suddenly, an ice cream carton fell off the shelf with a loud clatter. Startled, he jumped back, but it turned out to be just a delivery driver adjusting his load. The young man laughed nervously, realizing it was all in his imagination—until he noticed everyone else had already gone home.
