Not that long ago, when folks in the Poconos were considered "Country" and before the advent of today's retail giants, the famed "General Store" or "Country Store" was pretty much exclsively where the locals would do their shopping.
As such, these stores carried not only a wide assortment of goods, but they also knew that their customers had different tastes and preferences. So, in many cases, the amount of inventory was phenomenal.
Today, in keeping with that tradition, you'll find a number of Country Stores or "General Stores" - many claiming to be the "world's largest" - that dwarf the showcase of country living on display at the local Cracker Barrel.
