Thursday, 22 October 2020: Groceries I Have Known

Oct 22, 2020 12:30

About once a week, I order groceries from the Whole Foods I can see out my window. My order is always over $35...usually at least $35 x 2...so I get free delivery. Yesterday's delivery came in nine bags; somewhere in those bags were a box of fudgeicles and two frozen pizzas. (Don't judge me!) I very much wanted to deal with the bag or bags those ( Read more... )

I never judge when pizza and Fudgsicles are involved

How do you feel about apple cake?

I'd be happy to give it a go! :DD

Now I want fudgesicles. Possibly with apple cake.

Also, does Amazon deliver your groceries, or does Whole Foods just have some kind of deal where they advertise for Amazon? I am just curious.

Amazon acquire Whole Foods in 2017. When I shopped in-store I noticed a difference shortly after the acquisition: many more displays of already-packaged foods, like deli cheeses already sliced and in a case in the cheese section. They did keep up the quality, though, I think. FanSee

I'm not judging. We get Klondike Bars! 😋

I have noticed that when we pick up our groceries, they use smaller bags than they use if you go into shop. What a great idea to mark the bags so you know what to empty first!

I daren't buy Klondike Bars. I like them far too much. I'd never be able to limit myself to one.

Apparently they've been marking the stickers holding the bags closed since forever, but I just noticed it last week. I am not super-observant. FanSee

I can't help but think of the advertisement jingle for Klondike Bars. "What would you do for a Klondike Bar?" I do eat the sugar-free variety and they aren't that bad, though you know they are different.

Never let it be said that Amazon doesn't know how to overpackage orders.

I'm jealous of this labeling!

Does Smoke enjoy paper bags? One of Bowie's favorite things in life is paper bag *handles*. He sits expectantly waiting for a new one to be torn off and tossed to him after each grocery delivery.
