Cala Foods

I'm sorry if this has been discussed already. I was in San Francisco recently and came across "Cala Foods". I walked in thinking it was some independent market, but it appears to be owned by Ralphs, because they were selling Ralphs brand items and had Ralphs-style signage. Does anyone know...

Nice to know that there are others with similar interests/fascinations. Anyway, I have a question that I was hoping someone could clarify. From my understanding, Amer...
