List your top 5 grocery store items.
Watching me grocery shop is like catching a rerun of that old, not-so-popular game show Supermarket Sweep. There is no casual strolling. No browsing. My race begins in the parking lot. The list lives on my phone, and the second those automatic doors part, I hit the ground running.
Before we go any further, I need a pinky swear. Promise you won’t judge me by my list. I’m on a journey to eat right. Most of my lunches and dinners come from a local meal prep service, so my weekly grocery run is really just about breakfasts and snacks. I rotate through the same staples so I don’t get bored… and spiral. Because boredom in the snack aisle is where dreams go to die.
Pinkies up?
Green grapes.
My ShopRite carries these absolutely colossal grapes. Raised-on-steroids, not-from-this-earth sized. Juicy. Luscious. Some days I freeze a cup and convince myself they’re tiny Italian ices. A girl can dream.
Yogurt.
Yes, I read reviews. Of yogurt. Lately, Cabot non-fat plain Greek has my heart. I toss in frozen, no-sugar-added fruit and call it breakfast. I know—it’s not exciting. But I’m trying to look good at the beach, and sacrifices must be made.
Snyder’s Buffalo Wing Pretzel Pieces.
You can’t always find them, which makes them feel exclusive. On desperate weeks, I order them online like a woman with priorities. I live for crunch, and these deliver every time.
Trader Joe’s Mini Brie Bites.
Each tiny wheel is 70 calories, which means I can pretend I’m hosting a charcuterie party for one. Cheese without guilt is a little miracle to me.
Eggs.
If you’ve been here a while, you already know this about me. A soft-boiled egg is perfection. Portable. Reliable. Essential. I cannot live without them.
And that’s it. Items scanned. Cart returned to the corral. Exits store victorious.
See you for the next prompt.
