My mother and grandmother were firmly convinced that the quickest path to ptomaine poisoning was eating at a store lunch counter. I could hardly wait to get old enough to go downtown with my friends on Saturday and RISK.GETTING.PTOMAINE.POISONING. Yum....those BLT sandwiches and cokes poured over the shaved ice You could eat for about 50 cents (does that tell you how old I am?)

When I lived in NorCal, I loved having breakfast at the Kmart cafeteria. Could get scrambled eggs, hash browns, and toast for a deal of a price. I also enjoyed at times their blue raspberry ices. They did have good fries as someone else said and I'd sometimes get that with a grilled cheese. My Grandma and I enjoyed dining there sometimes together

Kmart closest to me now does have a food area. I have never eaten there.

I remember our K-Mart had an eating area/snack bar several years ago, then when they remodeled they took it out. The store actually closed about a month ago. We've had Wal-Mart here for years, but then a year ago Meijer came in too and K-Mart just couldn't make a go of it after that.

When I was a child there was a store called Newberry's in a neighboring town, and I remember they had a restaurant there but I don't recall ever eating there.

Our old Wal-Mart (before they built the supercenter across the road) had a snack bar several years ago, but they took it out and put in a Subway.

We didn't have KMarts near us, but I loved eating at the Woolworth lunch counter or getting pretzels from the Bradlees snack bar.

There is one in Bakersfield they left the Woolworth name up and it is a antique store with original wool worth cafeteria. Oh the little counter seats! The

Yes, that was part of my childhood too. Somehow the now-ubiquitous McDonalds in all the WalMarts just doesn't have the same charm!

The WalMart near my house has a Subway.

I remember the snack bar at Hill's, which later became Ame's. They had great nachos with cheese.

Not Kmart but we always ate at the Woolco cafeteria.
