Bailey's Custom Meats — Local services in Valdosta

Horrible Racist Experience and Unpleasant Service : On February 26, 2025, at around 5:15-17 PM, I went to this store to buy pork. However, while I was paying, the store owner, a middle-aged white man named Mike Bailey, repeatedly made the offensive remark "ching chang chong" towards me. At first, I was shocked and very confused. He kept saying it while laughing, and another white man named Michael, who was nearby, also laughed and seemed to enjoy the situation.

I immediately pointed out that this was a racist and rude remark, but he ignored me and kept repeating it, saying he didn’t know it had that meaning. Their behavior was unpleasant throughout, and even when I was leaving the store, they continued with their racist remarks, saying "Asian-style greeting." If they truly didn’t know that the phrase was inappropriate, they should have apologized right away. But instead, they refused to apologize and kept saying "ching chang chong" while laughing at me.

They made these derogatory and offensive remarks simply because I am Asian. I felt that they were fully aware that the language they were using was racist, yet they still chose to hurt me with their words. I just went to buy pork, so why should I have been treated this way?

Additionally, the pork appeared to be past its expiration date, which was really disappointing. Due to this unpleasant experience and the quality issues, I will not be returning to this store. I strongly advise you to avoid this place and not be subjected to...

Awesome place to shop.. They carry a large variety of meat, groceries and frozen food. They also serve breakfast and lunch and they also do catering. They have the best steaks in town and a super large variety of pick 5 items for $19.99.. They don't charge a 10% fee like most places do in town and they except all major credit cards and EBT. There breakfast and lunch is really good. Where else can you get Great Country Cooking at a great price. They also have a large variety of meat boxes that start at $39.95 and go up to $229.95. They allow you to pick and choose what you like and the steaks they have are cut to order. So you can get as many as you want at the thickness that you need. The Black Angus Fillets are $14.99 a pound and will melt in your mouth.. They will also season the steaks for you.. You can't beat that.. So stop on in and check them out...

I've used Mr Bailey for years. I don't eat pork and he has always been kind to accommodate my religious beliefs and would always adapt the freezer packs for that. The last time I went in he was very rude and didn't want to accommodate the freezer packs as he has done for years I went ahead and bought a few things and it actually ended up going bad not ling after it was put up. now granted I spend 1,000 plus at a time bc I stock my freezer when my taxes come in. It seems now that he has made upgrades and what not he doesn't care so much about his customers. I no longer spend my money with Bailey and...
