As Grumpus said, in most missions, your people will
need Granaries if they're to eat homegrown food at all. Bazaar buyers
will only get imported food types from Storage Yards.
Even in those missions where you can supply your Bazaars
from SYs, though, remember that Bazaars employ a Granary buyer, who
sits idle if there aren't any Granaries to buy from. While the Granary
buyer probably enjoys her early retirement very much, her sister the
SY buyer now has to get all the food, and has correspondingly less time
to shop for pottery, beer, etc. (p. 86 of the US manual) Bazaars work
most efficiently when the food comes from a Granary, and the SYs supply
only non-food items.
