Hello, Fellow Shoppers! While the selection of edibles (and non-edibles!) cheers the palates of those of many lands, the service in the *Trenton* Food Bazaar, in my experience, almost consistently demeans some, if not all, of its customers. To begin, while there is the fantastic, environmentally-friendly policy of discounting ones reusable shopping bags by .05 each, unless I stuff my reusable bags into my purse, I am *required* to leave any bags, excluding my purse, in the charge of various employees at the door. Not only does this make TFBs seemingly earth-friendly, wallet-friendly discount virtually impossible and/or ridiculous to obtain, it is offensive. Deeply offensive. When I first started working in retail, at the age of 16, in Marlton, NJ, the FIRST issue I learned about was SHRINK. I learned that it is an enormous problem that raises prices for everyone due to the acts of the few. I understand that the owners/shareholders/board members of Bogopa think (perhaps): "Because Trenton Food Bazaar serves a poor community (in the majority of shoppers), the amount of shrink is higher and as a result, we need to *confiscate* (temporarily) any bags that dont possibly hold money (womens handbags). This will cut down on theft, the product costs and our profits." If indeed this is the thinking behind this awful practice, I would like to know why I NEVER had this experience and NEVER saw such a "station" set up at the Food Bazaars in NY, most specifically, the Myrtle Avenue Food Bazaar, my experience being from 1998 to the present? I note the date because the ethnicities and tax bases have shifted significantly toward the more "well-heeled" in recent years. Yet, even when the Bedford-Stuyvesant neighborhood was, shall we say "uncoveted," Food Bazaars/Bogopas customers were treated respectfully... or, at least, allowed to enter the doors without an assault on their spirits. I urge my Fellow Shoppers and those "in charge" (those in upper management of Trenton Food Bazaar, Bogopa, Future Group... perhaps even Mr/s. Kishore Biryani) to challenge this policy by any means we can. Food Bazaars signage proclaims its devotion to "Home." In Trenton, reading that signage after entering after releasing my belongings, I am always just a bit disgusted, always reminded to buy enough browning to not have to shop there again for a long, LONG time. No other store in Mercer County, NJ, from the bodegas to the organic superstore, treats its customers with such disdain.

The hot food in the back is really the gem in this supermarket. Premade platters for only five dollars! The produce section and meat/fish section are phenomenal. The only downside is that the items here can be very expensive However, if you spend over 50 dollars, they have a free van delivery service. In which you wait with your cart outside for the van and they will load up the van with your groceries and take both YOU, your family, and your groceries straight to your home. Just be warned that the van service stops early, like at 4 or 5 pm? Otherwise it is a great service for those without a car!

The lines are ridiculously long no matter when you go. They have an awesome variety of ethnic groceries which is awesome. They also have a lot of seafood and fresh fruits and vegetables. I wouldnt shop here snacks or regular groceries that you can find in walmart because they are a bit pricey.

Dont know where else you would find a unqiue supermarket like this around here. They really do have just about everything you need and then some with reasonable prices too. Docked a star for the wait times...they can be bad. Service is also just okay, I had some trouble with returns.

Staff is rude. But this is the only supermarket in the neighborhood. They have a huge selection and good prices. You can come here for traditional food and hard to find exotic ingredients for African, Indian, Asian and Spanish food.
