Better Health Market Shelby — Attraction in Shelby Charter Township

Went here today for the first time with my husband and children. I was looking for a supplement to help curb my appetite while I work towards clean eating. The manager was a hefty man with reddish hair, I didn't catch his name. He "helped" me by telling me that an appetite suppressant wasn't going to help any if I didn't change my thought process, started dieting and threw away all the unhealthy foods in my home. I kindly said that I needed something to help me along until I can retrain my body to not crave sugar and fat. I didn't want to address his obvious negative attitude towards large people. He gave me what I wanted and when I thanked him and turned away he said snidly to me "good luck because it's going to be a long and impossible journey for you". My heart just about broke. Not only do I have a long and negative history with food but this is the heaviest I've been in my life and I've decided to change it. The last thing I needed was the hurtful and damaging comments from the manager of a health food store. Fast forward to 20 minutes later, my family was hungry after a long day of running errands and I bought the kids meal of PB and J and some fruit and some other items for my husband. I had a bowl of raw kale, a pear and some hummus from the salad bar. My children are 23 months and 3 and a half. They were slightly agitated because it was past naptime. My husband and I always keep in mind the people around us when we're out and the kids are cranky. After they are the majority of their food he took my youngest to the car who was very tired. They weren't disruptive to warrant us leaving but we're hyper aware to the peace of others in public. They walked by the same manager, sitting and eating his lunch. This man made a shooing motion to my husband and muttered good riddance to him and my youngest on the way out. I cleaned up our table in short order and took the hand of my oldest and also promptly left. Everyone else in the store who served us was extremely friendly and helpful except the manager. I will not enter this store ever again and alredy many people I know, have decided to follow suit because they are young families with children or mildly...

I absolutely love this location and almost fell on the floor laughing at the clearly false review that was given about the pink haired manager there by Jennifer C. First off you state she isn't a manager because you've met a manager there before. Is this your first time in a store that you believe theres only one manager? You just happen to witness this same person treating a man that you just by coincidence have ran into before being belittled by her yet you chose to continue to shop there? Who does this? And yes of course you spend sooooo much money there, like your money is greener than everybody else's and the pink haired girl just went off on you for kicks...its never the self entitled customer whom is unreasonable. Im glad you claim you won't shop there anymore because now I won't have to stand in line behind you while you cause a scene because your cheap little discount didn't work out the way YOU WANTED IT TO because you're special and don't have to follow the rules the like rest of us. I call bull...

EDIT: (doesn't show on maps when searching grocery stores, even "search this area" while centered on the strip it struggles until third try. Maybe Google is throttling the search idk.) Fricking love this place, we get the veg meal deal and eat in the cafe when I'm in town. My partner can't get enough of the carrot soufflé and macaroni salad. I love the mixed protein salad and cookie dough bites. We both adore the anti-inflammatory cauliflower and the kale tabbouli. I always grab a few immunity drinks to try too. Depending on the product, it can cost less than having similar stuff shipped, so most staples are worth it for convenience. Supplement prices are pretty standard, the stores brand I found to be relatively cheap. Thanks for bringing healthy plant-based options...
