Dominick's is the new Whole Foods: a Near-West Side Dominick's grocery store was closed when a health inspector found both fruit flies and houseflies in a rear kitchen area and on storage boxes. The store, located at 1 N. Halsted, hopes to reopen later today. Dominick's spokeswoman Wynona Redmond said, "We go to great lengths for sanitation and we have some of the highest store standards in the food industry...The issue with fruit flies has been addressed, we took it very seriously."

Funny. My wife tried to go there yesterday afternoon after they had just closed the store. The workers refused to say why it was closed. Nasty stuff.
