CNN producer note

ecw218 is visiting from New York and said he wanted to capture the unconventional scene at this downtown Atlanta market. He says he thought it would be interesting to observe how people interact with turkey necks and piles of greens.

iReport —

Shoppers were out in droves today at the Sweet Auburn Curb Market in downtown Atlanta, Georgia picking up last minute provisions for the Thanksgiving holiday. The market sells fresh meats and vegetables with an emphasis on southern specialty ingredients.

Over three different types of pre-cut greens were available in bags large enough to serve entire families. Other specialties like smoked pork turkey products were also selling fast.

The market was originally opened in 1924 and has been serving the metro Atlanta community since. The market boasts that they sell, "Every part of the pig except the oink!"
