No, of course not, but that's all that Safeway is selling.

Surely 20 bags of cup noodles should take you through more than two weeks. Shop smarter not harder.

 I like my food fresh, which means not frozen for no reason, not processed and not canned in general. And I also have two kids and a wife who like the same? It's not even hard, just 5-10 minutes extra on my 10 minute bike ride home. Also more importantly, how do you buy enough snacks for two weeks without eating it all in 3 days?

I did grow up in a family of 8 though so 20 doesn't seem that crazy to me.

I do. But this is the statement you made: The Nastier Nate posted:for decades, not having a car just meant you had to lug bags back and forth on the bus and make several trips just to get a weeks worth of food. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MNghp9tPXjo

So all these companies pointing to AI as the future, citing companies like Amazon using it to track groceries and not needing a cashier as the computer can just figure out what someone picked up. It turns out AI really means a bunch of barely paid people in India watching camera footage and marking what a person bought. The real innovation was finding a way to trick people into accepting outsourcing human face to face interaction

It's very easy to get groceries without a car when your neighborhood isn't specifically designed to make you need a car to get groceries.

I just duck into Costco each evening on my way home from work to pick up a ten pound bag of onions, a two pound vat of spinach, a five pound bag of rice, and ten pounds of chicken thighs Does anyone else here actually have a hungry family to feed? Only have to pick up the three gallon jug of teriyaki sauce on Tuesdays and Thursdays

i was at a safeway where every cart's wheel locks had been triggered, and the unlock keys were lost. it was like a post-apocalyptic highway scene, but with shopping carts.

My grocery store sucks they have nothing, except randomly they’ll have like a dozen pineapple plants. No pineapples to buy, mind you; but you can buy a pine apple plant and just loving do it yourself.
