Welcome, Natasha.  Every old-fashioned Spanish household has one of these and they are meant for neighborhood shopping:

They are very common here in Switzerland too. Most of the food-shopping is within 10 minutes walks from were I live   and as far as I know it is the same in most places.

I am also happy that most supermarkets have taken to selling organic food for a few years now. But what I like even more is a newer trend and that is to sell local food. They give the adress of the diary farmer or of the farm were the vegetable and fruit comes from. Unfortunately this is not yet for all vegetable and fruit, but the number are increasing.

And welcome to ET, Natasha!
