Grove St. Odor

[daviscubed.livejournal.com]

I recently moved from Gorham St. to Winsow Ave., and in doing so have walked a little more frequently on Grove St.

Has the stench - and I think it's coming from McKinnon's, but could be wrong - from the dumpster behind McKinnons through Cristo's always been there?  I mean, it can really knock you over.  I love McKinnon's, but am getting a little ascared of buying stuff from them, although I'm also assuming that the smell is more from refuse in their dumpster than anything they're selling.  

Maybe I just never noticed it before?  I would think there would have been a complaint...

Actually, I've smelled weird smells inside McKinnon's too. I stopped going there after a while because the combination of smell and too-good-to-be-true pricing made me wonder.
In fairness, I never got any bad meat from them - it was just a personal preference thing.

I agree.

Yeah. McKinnon's is easily the worst-smelling store in Davis.
On the other side of the block, though, it's worth walking into Sessa's Italian Grocery just to inhale deeply. MMMMmmmmmmmm, I love the smell of that store!
