I have noticed a distinct improvement and selection in recent years if not just the past six months. I too am surprised at how stores haven't made the leap. There seems to be resistance to combine the items and instead they want customers to visit each department separately. This can work if the store develops a kiosk or such which gives customers suggestions and quick path to the selections. Good signage could path customers quickly through the store without the appearance of too much diversion. Perhaps Kroger realized that to break the dominance of each department within the storm that a 3rd party was needed
