When I first visited Texas many years ago, it was unique. Dallas was uncrowded and clean. Men were men and women were women. Most were White. There was a Jew here and there, but far and few between. Until recently, I really never paid attention to a place called HEB. I call it "heeeb". Mrs. Grumpy said: "they really have a place called heeeb? - that's terrible" They refer to themselves as H. - eeee -Bee or "Here Everything's Better." I thought it was some leftover "slur" started long ago by good 'ole christian cowboys, who disliked Jews. Perhaps, I also thought, it was just more convenient to say "Here Everything's Better" than change the HEB. But you really don't know it's "Here Everything's Better" until you go inside and ask or read the receipt. Not long ago, I decided to venture into a HEB. For those of you more familiar with Shop Rite, Publix, Albertson's and Wal-Mart, HEB is a large supermarket chain in Texas and Mexico. The origin of HEB was Howard E. Butts back 'round 1919. Yes, Butts. This is NOT an advertisement, but the place is great, and it's better than any other supermarket I've ever been to. Whenever I'm in Laredo (bobtailing), I shop at H.E.B. And I'm sure they employ Jews. If you're curious or want info go to: http://www.heb.com/welcome/index.jsp. And I also forgive them for carrying on of my favorite drinks - JuMex or Jew Mex. LOL. Try it, you'll like it, even if, like me, you're not a Jew. Their web site is at: http://jumex.com/
