Cherries are everywhere right now. WinCo has them at $2.98/lb., which beats the $4.99–$5.99 you'll pay at most other places. If you've been waiting on cherry season, this is the week.
Tomorrow, 14 volunteers are fanning out to every WinCo in the #Portland-#Vancouver metro to track prices — same day, same items — to build the most complete price snapshot of WinCo we've ever done.
We just need one more person for Hillsboro Oak. 30 minutes of your Saturday morning.
We blind-tasted every store-brand seltzer in #Portland — two flavors each, no labels. One store's grapefruit flavor was compared to a Bath & Body Works lotion.

Btw. I've noticed a local outlet published a "complete" guide to Portland farmers markets this week. It only has 12. And has a few errors.
My guide has 43, updates weekly, and is designed to be a tool to return to over and over.
Please support independent journalists like me, y'all!

We blind taste-test seven Portland grocery stores seltzer waters to find the best. Lime and grapefruit, four judges. Some brands surprised us. One completely fell apart.

Hot take from our seltzer blind taste test: Kirkland Signature's grapefruit flavor was one most universally despised products we've ever tasted. One judge compared it to Bath & Body Works lotion. Another gave it a zero. It's in a 35-can variety pack. Read the full results and see which seltzer won:
