Do you have markets like this where you live? This market almost brought a tear to my eye. We were only in Toronto for one day so I couldn't buy much of anything and the thought of going back home to shop at my crappy market was depressing.

We have the FDA here, only real chemical infused carrion can be sold in America.

The Italian Market on 9^th street between Wharton and Federal streets in Philadelphia Pa has the most amazing markets I've ever seen. Gawdamn I miss Philly.

The pictures don't do it justice. You should have seen the seafood. It really depressed me knowing I have come back to shop at stinking old Publix.

Plus they had little gourmet sandwich shops all through out the market. The Peameal bacon sandwich was the best thing I ever ate in my life. If you're wondering wtf is a peameal bacon sandwich you have to find out if it's the last thing you do.

Yum.

When I first bit into it I thought for a second that I was biting into a bone, then I realized it wasn't a bone. It was a crunchy piece of heaven.

I've never tried a Peameal bacon sandwich, but now I want one.

That's an awesome market. The Ferry Plaza Farmers' Market on the Embarcadero here is beautiful -- great organic produce, breads, cheeses, meats, spices, sandwiches, wines... It's only on a couple of times a week and it's expensive, so I hardly ever go, but it does make hitting the Safeway a let down.

I think the St. Lawrence market looks even better than our Ferry Plaza one though.

Oh, Canada................
