I'll only buy stuff sealed in jars in that place.
My guess is it's not an H-Mart. We have stores like that in Chinatown that are totally gross.
H-Marts and Mitsuwa (the two chain stores I have experience with) are in my experience quite well maintained. I mean, you could eat off the floor in Mitsuwa.
