Absysmally Bad Article -- British Defaultism and Other Problems

[edit]

In the United States, a 'food hall' (in recent times, when the concept / term has become 'trendy' -- the time it was last in common use here to mean something else, if ever, was before the birth of any living American) is an upscale / gourmet food court with local restaurants (almost always quick service) rather than national chains. It is NOT a farmers' market or city market, though the largest of these could feasibly contain one, and some of the booths might offer pastries, etc. for a quick standing meal. (Many of the examples of 'food halls' in the U.S. in the list in this article are large farmers' markets or 'city markets.' Additionally, many of THESE [farmers' markets and city markets] have been left out of the list for no discernible reason -- e.g., several large Chicago farmers' markets and Kansas City's [MO] massive City Market -- an entire neighborhood.) Additionally, U.S. department stores (the very large ones -- e.g., Marshall Field's [now Macy's] on State Street in Chicago) ALSO feature entire sections dedicated to gourmet foods -- candy, deli items, high-end packaged foods, etc. (sometimes entire floors) (but never a true 'grocery' store with a butchery, etc.) -- and these have all been left off of the list, as well. I don't have time to fight with top-tier Wikipedia editors to fix this, but if anyone braver than I comes along and would like to try, please, have at it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Genevievelasainte (talkcontribs) 16:42, 9 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
