This is from first hand observation. Kroger came in and forced their national items, like peach muffins, into a community they had little knowledge of.. The former Mariano's stocked cranberry-nut muffins and a variety of muffin types. Same thing with Mariano's hot buffet items, which Kroger dropped meat items from and used a standardized central kitchen production of buffet fixings. The only previous Kroger chain around Chicago is the Food-4-Less warehouse of drab corn syrupy box food with a parking lot littered with sale flyers.
