In the US, Whole Foods and IKEA always have them!

Like many redditors, The nearest Whole foods and and IKEA are several hours drive from where I live. (Don't feel too sorry for me, thank FSM there's a Wegmans on the other side of town, and they have lingonberry jam. In fact ther's some in my fridge right now.)

I got spoiled by the 99th Wegmans they opened up in Virginia Beach. Then we moved an hour north to Williamsburg. I love that we have a Publix up here… but I'd definitely trade access to IKEA and Whole Foods to have a Wegmans closer - in a heartbeat. Their prepared foods are way outside my budget, but they have SO much awesome stuff, and produce and cheeses I can't get anywhere else, along with some FANTASTIC house brand frozen foods… lots of amazing stuff that's hard to find anywhere else :)

I'd trade whole foods for Wegmans any day... None on the west coast /sobs

The nearest IKEA to me is like 50+ miles and I've never even seen a whole foods before.

I guess I’m blessed to have a Whole Foods and Ikea within 15 minutes from my home. And a Wegmans with 10 minutes of my job. 😅
