When you go to the grocery store you’re looking for quality products and affordable prices. You’re probably not considering how the shop performed on its previous health inspection. After all, it isn’t preparing food in the same way as local restaurants. However, grocery stores go through the same health and quality control inspections as restaurants in the community as well. One local grocery store in metro Phoenix has an attached restaurant. This restaurant performed poorly enough to receive a D grade on its inspection (despite the grocery store passing the same inspection).

Touring musicians must carry their musical equipment with them while on the road. In practical terms, this means storing their musical equipment in their vans and vehicles while sleeping, eating, and visiting the cities they are traveling through or playing in. While this sounds simple enough, in Portland it has been a challenge for more than just one band or musician.
