Suggestion Box

Q. We need a Co-op commercial or a giant veggie to hand out flyers.

A. Great idea — we’ll look into it.

Q. Please carry Meadow Brook Farms dairy chocolate milk. It is the best.

A. Their ingredients do not meet our buying policy.

Q. I like to know the names of the help. Name tags?

A. We have tried this in the past and will revisit the issue.

Q. What actually gets recycled back there? We hear packaging bubbles go right to the trash. What’s up?

A. We recycle as best we can. Packaging materials go to a shipping company.

Q. We loved the wonderful children’s toys that you used to sell. Any thoughts of continuing that idea in the new store or this one?

A. We unfortunately do not have room for toys at this location. We will take this into consideration at a new location or in a remodel at our present location.

Q. I have an automatic coffee maker and I would love to buy unbleached paper filters for it. I only see Melita types. Could you carry them?

A. We’ll get some basket-type filters.

Q. Can we sell milk bottle carriers here? It would help prevent breaking the bottles.

A. We’ll talk to our milkman.

Q. Please put the crystallized ginger with the spices so people can find it.

A. It is stocked with the spices as well as with the display in the Produce department.

Q. We love bananas! Is it necessary that they’re wrapped in plastic?

A. Given a choice, we get bananas with no bags. When only bagged bananas are offered, that’s what we get.

Q. The photo copier smells really bad. It should be in a ventilated room. Not in an air trap — health concerns.

A. In an ideal world we would have the copier in a centrally located, enclosed room. We try to run the fans when making mass copies. That’s all we can do for now.

Q. Get a comic section with all kinds of comics.

A. You may support local comics merchant Earthworld for your comic needs (located across the street from the Coop on Central Ave.).

Q. I am intrigued by the new potato-based plastic spoons. Are they suitable for washing/cleaning and re-using (at least at home)?

A. We can’t guarantee that they are dishwasher safe. We believe you could hand wash them.
