Don't forget The Fresh Market in the South! Although I guess it is more of a gourmet food market than a grocery store.

I'm an old Southern resident (Tennessee for three years), and I remember the Fresh Market.

Grocery stores in OC parallel those in San Diego, but I'd also add Gelson's, another one of these gourmet-style markets.

Denver has many of the above, and I won't take time to name them, but one that hasn't been mentioned, and I haven't seen anywhere else is KingSoopers. Yes, it's spelled that way, and it's owned by Krogers.

We also have Grocery Warehouse which is a discount type place -- kinda like Costco, but with only groceries.
