Food Scavenger Hunt part 2

Recently the YAB have visited three grocery stores, H.E.B at Hancock, Central Market, and In.gredients. Before visiting the other two stores we decided to check out In.gredients. In.gredients is very modern and carries organic products  In.gredients is also a reuse-recycle store where they advise customers to bring there own bottles, jars and boxes so they can just reuse them when they come back especially because they let you buy in bulk. This is also a way to avoid using plastic bags. The people who worked for In.gredients told us many secrets behind there success in growing plants. For example, the plant plots in the front have water coming up from the bottom because of droughts drying up the water.After our previous food hunt and visiting In.gredients, we noticed that the H.E.B on Springdale located near East Austin was "mistreated" compared to the H.E.B on Hancock.

What caught the Y.A.B by surprise was the fact that the H.E.B on Hancock supported healthy living and was only 10 miles away from the H.E.B on Springdale. All of us were disgusted and confused to see that both of these stores carried completely different porducts but were only 10 minutes away from each other.

Central Market was in great shape and shared many things in common with the H.E.B on Hancock. How could such a thing happen? We are all humans and deserve to be treated all the same. Why is this going on and has someone done something about it? Will anyone be a hero? The answer is yes, the YAB will continue to investigate and fight back and try our very best to end this unfair event, or at least get a reason as to why there is an injustice.
