It immediately improved the quality of my shopping- otherwise I just wander the aisles overwhelmed with choices and thinking "what do people buy here?" Then I end up back at home with six kinds of yogurt, an avocado and some trail mix for the third week in a row.eleanorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08760224159997302024noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2526258348124329445.post-88888373446564724462010-02-16T02:43:29.136-08:002010-02-16T02:43:29.136-08:00You might feel lost in the grocery store, but you ...<i>You might feel lost in the grocery store, but you chose the best yogurt ever</i>.

Maybe guys everywhere can relate to this. <br /><br />Spend a hundred wing-wangs on food, and you get home and have nothing to eat.

The reason being that the proportions of food that the actual grocery store sells are so large they are designed to feed an enormous family. Also, I have the same issue of feeling entirely overwhelmed by colorful packaging and want to buy everything instantly. This is why (and I am ashamed to admit it because I am not a yuppie) I buy from freshdirect.com. I know don't judge me!Sarah Faderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00130247223287762814noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2526258348124329445.post-72451287835790851782010-02-04T23:46:53.702-08:002010-02-04T23:46:53.702-08:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2526258348124329445.post-40305033145659802352010-02-04T15:51:02.259-08:002010-02-04T15:51:02.259-08:00i'm not going to lie, i really appreciated rea...i'm not going to lie, i really appreciated reading this. hahh it's kindof sad because it sounds like our eating habits are really similair- i pretty much live off of frozen dinners and cartoon character macaroni and cheese. i don't shop for myself now, but i will in a few months and it is a legitimatley scary prospect.morgan lochhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08762804970231527404noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2526258348124329445.post-22395341403532561892010-02-02T17:35:26.388-08:002010-02-02T17:35:26.388-08:00First of all, thanks for stopping by my blog and l...First of all, thanks for stopping by my blog and leaving a comment; makes me feel SO validated!<br /><br />Also, just reading this one post, I decided I must become a follower. You are BLOODY HILARIOUS.<br /><br />Quandry, though: it seems as though I shop like a man; I avoid looking at the labels. Never even crosses my mind, matter of fact. -Anyway, if I shop like a man, I shop like one who likes to cook, because I get all sorts of things each time I enter a grocery store. And then there's the problem of over-buying: I buy way more than what's on the ol' list. And STILL I manage to forget something almost every trip.<br /><br />DANG, I'm hungry...I better go eat something NOW...the ginabeanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08237796696115756778noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2526258348124329445.post-79336005444214920732010-02-02T15:59:39.575-08:002010-02-02T15:59:39.575-08:00my brother and his friends just moved out for the ...my brother and his friends just moved out for the first time recently, so they're suffering the same thing. When they came to visit this weekend, my brother raids the kitchen first thing getting excited over olives, crackers, and chewy granola bars! he called his friend and they both were excited at how full they have felt for the first time in a month, haha! My mom sent him off with all the crap that we havent eaten plus she cooked some meatballs and stored them in single serving sandwich bags for him to freeze and pull out when hes hungry...<br /><br />thanks for visiting my blog, your a funny guy! =)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2526258348124329445.post-67505085479425142942010-02-02T15:58:23.343-08:002010-02-02T15:58:23.343-08:00This comment has been removed by the author.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18415148729734237005noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2526258348124329445.post-89604414003820876012010-02-02T14:53:51.374-08:002010-02-02T14:53:51.374-08:00I laughed so hard the entire time I read this.

Nancy and Jeninacide wrote you should buy Two Dudes One Pan - the book just won the title of being in the top 10 best new cookbooks in the US this year!

I guess I was looking for more "snacky" items, not chicken breasts, steaks, etc.<br /><br />I hate the "blue fur" stuff!

It was a lot. And all out of total relatability! I too, am a sucker for buying foods for meals, but no foods for snacks. Although I have to admit that I have recently become a fan of celery and carrots with dip... although the veg require preparation of some sort... so alternatively, crackers do just as well! I'm also a fan of frozen food! I think it is a neccesity for people who live on their own! Either that or go to the supermarket once a day...Laurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02912420872519958627noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2526258348124329445.post-54158991344822084022010-02-01T15:27:02.117-08:002010-02-01T15:27:02.117-08:00I need to stop reading your blogs after dinner...t...I need to stop reading your blogs after dinner...they make my belly ache from laughing!!<br /><3 Mrs.DAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2526258348124329445.post-92117720498723611042010-02-01T13:19:14.779-08:002010-02-01T13:19:14.779-08:00Well, that goes some way to explaining why the sup...Well, that goes some way to explaining why the supermarkets are chock full of confused-looking men getting in my way at the weekends...you poor souls!

LOL!<br /><br />OMG, did I tell you about the Two Dudes, One Pan already? My mom is so funny. I think I might have to try a recipe in that book and then I'll let you know how it goes. It would be awesome for living alone probably. You could just cook once or twice a week and have enough leftovers to cover you for the rest of the week! Perhaps that is not how guys work though? I have no idea, my husband is such a foodie that he taught ME how to shop.<br /><br />Um, the word verification on your blog right now is "facket" Haha.Jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11571662009601634638noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2526258348124329445.post-90505505923840135622010-01-31T21:05:37.751-08:002010-01-31T21:05:37.751-08:00LOL!

You know that's what you are looking for every time you open your fridge. Just like at mom's house. My youngest called with an offer the other day to put all of her things in storage and move home for a few months to save money for travel! Wow, I thought. Hmmm, now I can worry about where she is at night, I can pick up after her, wash her dishes, and clean up her bathroom. I countered with graduate school, if she moves home, and I haven't heard back!
