Sure moldy cheese and items passed their sell-by dates are fancy First World problems in Brooklyn Heights, but hunks of green goo being sold as “food” is still a shocker.

Grosstedes Does It Again
This from a BHB tipster: Check out the "sell by" date on this container of milk: August 22. That's OK if I didn't buy it TODAY from Gristedes on Henry Street (pic attached with receipt). Isn't that illegal to have this on their shelves? I called the store and they offered a refund if I […]

Great Grosstede’s Ghost!
A BHB tipster sent in this photo of a delicacy for sale at Peas ‘n’ Pickles on Henry Street. As much as we love the P&P and as much as we know they’re working doubletime since the Great Grosstedes Fire of ’08, this is not the kind of stuff anyone likes to see on the […]
Gristedes Gutted, Brooklyn Heights Nervously Awaits Rebirth
The fire damaged Henry Street Gristedes is under going what appears to be a total gut renovation. Photos posted on McBrooklyn today show that the store has been stripped down to its bare bones. While we’ve all slammed “Grosstedes” in the past, life without it has been a real pain in the arse to say […]
