The JONS in Hollywood (La Brea & Fountain) is the best place in the whole city for cheap produce. Yeah, you have to pick through the rotten apples (literally) to find a good one but for a few cents a piece I'll dig all day. I'm not sure if all JONS are this way but this one seems to cater to the local ethnic crowd. They stock many kinds of Polish beer and Persian pickled cucumbers among countless other ethnic delicacies.
While this is all great it isn't the most intriguing thing about this JONS. The most interesting aspect is the apparent requirement of a unibrow in order to work anywhere in the store but the checkout (there you have to be a disgruntled hispanic woman). I feel like a big enough a-hole just writing about this so I couldn't bring myself to take a picture of one of them. Guess you're just going to have to see for yourself.

Dominic and Nicole!
I've been scouring the Web for a couple of days looking for information about my upcoming move to L.A. in about a year’s time and your blog is, by far, one of the most in-depth and informative tools I've come across.
Everything from the moving and living costs to the neighborhood experiences and the best places to eat and shop is being read and retained with careful consideration.
Thank you so much for deciding to document your journey; it is certainly helping me with mine.
Looking forward to reading much more!
