A while back, Washington, DC, got a brand-spanking-new Trader Joe’s within blocks of Whole Foods, which had the Washington Post wondering, “Trader Joe’s or Whole Foods?” They created this flowchart to choose between what they call “privileged grocery goodness.” It’s still the most San Francisco chart ever.
Some of the jokes are a little stale (Jimmy Buffet? Come on!) but this flowchart could be of use to people in SF (and in case you’re wondering, Harris Teeter is kind of like a fancier Safeway, à la Mollie Stone’s).
