We’ve been avoiding the London Broil for months now. Running into the large cut is usually as hard as opening up a weekly circular, and it seems to taunt us at every turn.

The Coupon Clipper scours the specials for the best deals in New York's big grocery stores. Bananas aren’t exactly the first fruit we look for in the ads.

Regardless of what Key Foods has to say, not many people need 10 avocados. It is the fattiest fruit in the kingdom and supplies some 25 percent of your daily monounsaturated fat needs. Who needs 10 of these besides Super Bowl party planners in need of a mega-batch of guacamole? Key Food’s hope is that the low price per piece, $1, will bring interest, and to their credit, it worked. Sure they weren’t California Hass,......

Another one bites the dust. Brooklyn Heights' most elegant, friendly supermarket has shut its doors - the D'Agostino's on the corner of Henry Street and Love Lane. Housed in, well, a house of sorts, the Heights' D'Ag was always an oasis of clean and calm in comparison to its local brethren - the nasty Henry Street Gristedes and Montague Street Key Foods to be exact. Now, it looks like fine food shopping will solely be......
