Okay, so you are at the grocery and waiting in line. What do you do? Let's just SAY you do not have any kids with you begging for a bag of M & M's or for the pink lip gloss conveniently placed at their eye level. I typically scan the magazines and gossip rag covers. Laugh at the alien landing in Montana article, wonder if Angelina REALLY IS pregnant again and look at the contents of other people's carts as they wait in line.
So I say to you...what does the contents of YOUR grocery cart say about you?!?!? This week I was very proud of the contents of my cart...fresh veggies and fruit, a nice variety of chicken, fish and beef, healthy cereals, milk, eggs, cheese...nothing blatantly unhealthy or junky. "Joe", that is what I will call him, was in front of me in line and HE had about 15 frozen pot pies, 10 HUNGRY MAN meals, 4 boxes of pop tarts, a box of Captain Crunch, chocolate milk, Chips Ahoy cookies, ice cream, kettle chips, and Bagel Bites. Oh, and he also had paper plates. Well, at first I thought, "Hmmm, what a horrible diet this guy has...junk, processed foods, sweets..." Then the longer I stood there I got to thinking that I would like to consume just about EVERY THING in his cart AND serve it on paper plates to avoid another kitchen clean up!! Further, I wondered if he would like to trade carts with me so I could eat those Chips Ahoy cookies on the way home washing them down with that chocolate milk!!
