Goldbud Farms offers a wide variety of peaches, nectarines, plums, and Fuji apples grown in the cool, crisp mountain air of Northern California, where the volcanic soil of the foothills is rich in minerals and the slow growing season accentuate the maximum flavor of the fruit. The size, flavor, and juiciness of Goldbud fruit remind of tree-ripe fruit eaten long ago. Fruit this ripe can't sustain the indignity of being thrown around by machines. All of it - every Goldbud apple, plum, pear, peach, nectarine and cherry - is picked by hand. Hands gently pack the fruit in boxes in perfect rows based on size, like in the old days.
Richter Berries showcases raspberries, blackberries, and a variety of other specialty berries grown in the rich soil of the Puyallup Valley in Fife, Washington. Quoted to be one of the best tasting raspberries in the country by the New York Times and the Seattle Times. These berries are flown in fresh daily at the peak of flavor for you to enjoy. Exclusive to only a few retailers in the United States, these berries are "the cream of the crop!"
Now available at all four Straub's locations!

Luckily, the more things change, the more they stay the same. Much like the old Busch Stadium begat the new Busch Stadium, a number of local stores today are committed to carrying the signature sweets from other, now-defunct shops.

CHOC FULL
SUPERMARKET NEWS
By George Ellis
06/30/2008
Just as chocolate lovers were beginning to grasp the flavor nuances of sweet treats boasting premium cacao content, chocolatiers began infusing their delectable creations with equally premium centers. Today's fillings range from standby caramels and cremes to such exotic inclusions as hot chilies, olive oil, superfruits and even breakfast proteins.
"People have got in their mind that really good chocolate tastes even better if it's got raspberries or coffee beans or something like that in it," said Marcia Mogelonsky, an analyst with Mintel, a Chicago-based market research company. "As people become more sophisticated and want better-quality chocolate, they want more sophisticated fillings as well."
