About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, a regular noticed something strange: every time he bought an apple from Acme Supermarket, it had exactly six bites taken out of it. Curious, he started buying apples for everyone in his office. Soon enough, they noticed the same pattern—each apple had precisely six bites. Turns out, a friendly delivery driver was testing their sweet tooth before making deliveries.
2. In the dairy aisle one day, a little boy pointed and asked his mom, ‘Mom, why do these milk bottles look like they’re smiling back at me?’ The mother smiled and gently replied, 'They're not really smiling, honey.' Just then, an elderly lady passing by chimed in with a twinkle in her eye, 'Oh, but they're definitely trying to catch your attention!' Everyone laughed, and the boy, now giggling, looked around, realizing maybe those milk bottles were up to something after all.
3. At dawn, when most supermarkets are quiet, a delivery driver noticed something odd in the produce section. Every banana seemed to be smiling back at him. Curious, he leaned closer and realized each banana had a tiny black dot that looked like an eye. Startled laughter from behind made him jump—just his neighbor, buying bananas for breakfast. ‘Morning smile,’ she winked.}
4. Late at night, while stocking shelves, a young employee swore they heard someone whispering in the frozen food section. No one else seemed to notice, but the whispers grew louder each shift. One night, an old delivery driver mentioned over coffee that he’d seen ‘something strange’ near the cheese aisle. Turns out, it was just an enthusiastic mouse trying to start its own dairy business. Everyone agreed it added character to Acme.
