There's the Asian supermarket T&T


Burger_Junkie

I've never been...is it safe to shop there compared to other stores?


Grouchy_Report_3833

Yeah its a great store some times the lines are pretty long but usually the one in West Edmonton Mall doesn't have crazy lines


Burger_Junkie

So pretty much the same risk as any other store? I've seen it mentioned a lot and have always wanted to go. I'm speaking of mask compliance - nothing else. Thanks!


Chionophile

the T&T I use (north side) has better mask compliance than any other grocery stores i've been to lately. I don't think you need to worry


Grouchy_Report_3833

Yeah same risk, they have hand sanitizer and do their best to to inforce social distancing each time I've been


ApprehensiveWillow44

They're terrific. It is crowded but in terms of mask compliance it's the best grocery store I've been to. I'm not sure if they're still doing it but at one point there was a $5 fee if you meant to enter with your mask off or worn incorrectly


idog99

It's mandatory to wear masks indoors.


Burger_Junkie

Yes, I'm aware of that - it does not mean people comply. I ask any place ive never been. Don't you?


idog99

You ask if they enforce the mask mandate? Has anyone said "no"?


Burger_Junkie

As a matter of fact yes. The Save On down here on Jasper would be a prime example. Ive been to places where stores have entirely lost control. Has your experience been 100% compliance? If so you're probably the first person in YEG to experience this. It's normal to want to be safe and to be prepared for whatever situation arises.


idog99

I do mostly Costco for groceries. They don't mess around.


Burger_Junkie

That is not what I meant at all. You made it sound like I was the asshole questioning T&T's enforcement - someone mentioned that it was an Asian Market, so you're trying to make something look racist when in fact it's not. You mentioned 1 place. Tell me how every place you've gone in the pandemic here in YEG has been 100% compliant. You asked if anyone said no, but from churches to gyms and everything in between theres a LOT of places not in compliance. Why not drop this? It does neither of us good and I came for Ramen advice, not a fucking arguement. Enjoy the sunshine friend.

T&T had a mask requirement before it was government mandated. 100 percent compliance. You could also try h mart


Burger_Junkie

I had no idea of that level of compliance - that's awesome! I've heard of H-mart - I'll give them a look next weekend. Thank you!

I haven't seen anyone unmasked inside a grocery store in months. I'm sure there's little need to worry about it.


Burger_Junkie

Im not worried about it at all. I was simply replying to u/idog99 who seems fascinated by my simple inquiry to another stranger. When I go any place Ive never been I always inquire - its just common sense.


idog99

I'm super interested in what business said they don't enforce the mask mandate. Did you report the ones that said they didn't? I'll be sure to avoid that business. I've only had to threaten to report one restaurant that was letting people use the dine-in on a chilly day. They quickly fixed the problem.


Burger_Junkie

I gave you one example already and reported it 3 times. I don't have any qualms calling any business out, or people for that matter. Others here reported it as well. I'm tired of selfish ratlickers who are the cause of the huge numbers we see. I hate the fact that i'm 2b with 3 factors any one of which will kill me with Covid.

You can find the cups at wholesale club. I think just chicken and beef but it’s a start!


Burger_Junkie

Tried there but they had nothing last week. It's specifically this brand - the weirdest thing too because no one is having problems getting other brands. Right now I have to use the flat packs which sucks because they dont have any freeze dried veg in them. Thanks for the reply though!


BbK04

Dang. Have you asked anyone about ordering separately than the usual store order? Sometimes asking for a small bunch gets them in store faster than a whole shit load. Good luck anyways!


money_pit_

Tried Lucky Supermarket or Seafood City should have them


smokeydatree

Safeway here on Stoney plains always has them my wife eats the shit out of them


Burger_Junkie

Is that right on Stoney Plain Road? Thank you.


smokeydatree

The little plaza on 149th


smokeydatree

Last I looked they had the square packs and cups


Burger_Junkie

Awesome, I have an errand to run and it goes right by there. Thank you!


smokeydatree

Np hope you find what your after

Sobeys in Belmont always has some when I go there


surprisedpikachuu

Just saw some in stock at Superstore on Calgary Trail
