I am 63 and went to Whole Foods Union Square this morning about 7:30. Apart from the early hour, it was great — not crowded and lots of fresh produce, fish, meat and dairy. Having read about long lines to shop and bare shelves, it was very comforting to find a store that felt normal. I appreciate that they are doing this. Btw there was a security guy checking IDs for age, though (for better or worse) he took a good look at me and let me in. But very pleasant. I guess we have to abandon vanity in a pandemic! When I left a little before 8 am, there were maybe a dozen people waiting outside to get in. I went by again around 6 pm and there was a line towards University place.

Who gets up at 7 a.m. when you're retired??

Hey @7:45, Did they happen to have things like the rotisserie chickens and hot table soups at that time?
