Checked out an Amish run market today.

I appreciate the no-makeup, fully clothed modesty of the girl running the register. Good bread too. I will be going back.

What markets do you shop at where cashiers aren’t fully clothed?

Also curious. Asking for a friend.

The only exposed skin on her body was her face, hands, and neck above the collar.

This is not answering the question. Do woman arms give you the Vapors?

Upper arms and shoulders do sometimes, if they're nice. I also like hands, calves, and teeth.

I used to shop at a farmer's market where an Amish guy had a stand. He sold eggs, bacon, and cheese, etc. Come to find out he'd have the equivalent of a shabbos goy drive him to the farmer's market since he wasn't allowed to operate a vehicle.

Then I found out that some Amish will use non-Amish neighbors' freezers to store food since they're not allowed to have such electrical appliances themselves (rather than keep an ice house). So.. not much different than what Jews do. That was a bummer.

But hey! I hope you and that gal fall in love and have lots of beautiful babies together.

Up North we have Hutterites.

They're self sufficient, dress modestly. But they don't shun technology like the Amish. They'll do things like own vehicles, but they take out the radio so they don't listen to "the Devil's music".

Growing up we saw them as backwards for not owning TVs. But now I see that they've got everything figured out.

Taken from hutterites.org

"A question that is often asked is whether or not an outsider can join a Hutterite colony.
It has happened that outsiders or non-Hutterites join a Hutterite colony, but it is quite rare. Few Hutterite colony are open to outsider joining, but there are a handful who would consider it, depending on the candidate and the willingness of the candidate to adopt to the Hutterian norms."

Hutterite farms are where you go the very best jam, and other food stuffs.

Could be he thinks his local churches' restrictions are too extreme and he's trying to get around them.

They’re so famously self sufficient it’s easy to forget they’re not machinery. And forget that living that way is probly pretty hard for some of them. Not all of them are exactly as prosperous, or live in areas exactly as left alone by the government as others do.
And they’re still 5000 years of subversion and pedophilia away from deserving to be compared to the tribe.

The local Mennonite store has THE best butter ever. Better fruits and vegetables than most stores too and the prices are about the same. There are some specialty things that are better. Baked goods and honey for instance. Girls also dress very modestly, wear little hats too.

I always see Mennonite folks in truck stops. Almost never anywhere else. For some reason they love to stop at truck stops. I’m a trucker so that’s my excuse.

long time ago, my dad bought me the apple fritters with fresh slices of apple baked in it from an amish market. Still remember it decades later.

[ - ] Nosferatjew [op] 3 points 3.9 yearsJul 18, 2021 03:33:57 ago (+3/-0)

I ate one of those today. It was indeed a yummy treat.

[ - ] eongoat 2 points 3.9 yearsJul 18, 2021 04:01:21 ago (+2/-0)

I don't mean chunk of apple either, I mean like a slice - 1/16th slice maybe?

What're the prices like?

Kinda surprised they had a register, or was it mechanical?

[ - ] Nosferatjew [op] 3 points 3.9 yearsJul 17, 2021 21:39:01 ago (+3/-0)*

It was a touch screen dealy, with a built-in card reader.... not what I was expecting.

Prices were fine, nothing to write home about.

Get some Trail Bologna if they have it, you'll thank me later.

[ - ] White_Pride_Cis 3 points 3.9 yearsJul 18, 2021 01:50:04 ago (+3/-0)

Their Jaegerschnitzle is divine. You’ll thank me.

"I went to a place and it was great! Haven't been back in years,tho."

"Was it expensive?"

"No,the prices were reasonable."

"Is it out of your way?"

"No,it's on my way home."

"Then why haven't you been back?"

"I don't know."

It's ok to do things you enjoy and not settle for shit,folks.

Eh, reasonable enough.
