I’ve literally overheard multiple dinner party conversations about good finds from trader joes
Trader Joe’s is okay for some things. I like their cinnamon rolls and think they are worth the five dollars.
A fellow Trader Joe’s lover definitely transcends the lame smalltalk boundary. I don’t even go but the way my dad recommends food when he meets someone else who goes to Trader Joe’s you would think they had known each other their whole life.
I picked up some Tobasco Scorpion pepper sauce at Kroger. It’s no joke. Where are you going?
Yesss scorpion pepper sauce! 🦂🔥
Oh, man. A few months ago I, a quadragenarian dude, spent like 20 minutes telling a friend about my skin care routine. … when I have the gumption to do it.
Not a recent purchase, but Costco had these halloumi fries recently and they were bomb. I’m sad to see that I can’t buy them right now.
How do you use halloumi during your routine?
On rough days I get high and eat too many of them. Helps fight wrinkles caused by furrowed brows.
Actually yes! Fresh basil. I’m making a bruschetta chicken dinner tonight.
I got a basil plant from Walmart a few months ago because it was literally the same price as the dried stuff.
I’ve been putting basil in basically everything haha
Typically if someone asks me a very off key question like this, I assume it’s because they want to be asked that question in order to start a conversation they have in mind. So I would usually give some answer: “I’m really enjoying baking bread right now, so I suppose flour.”
Then ask “what about you?” Which is usually when the really interesting and often much more off key conversation starts. If not, I can start talking about baking bread, so it’s win/win for me!
Naw that’s just part of getting old.
My younger self would be very disappointed at the things I find exciting now.
I recently found an Indian grocery store that stocks those Heinz beans in the teal can that are popular on toast in the UK! …turns out they’re not very good. But I found them!!
Younger me might be disappointed in a lot of things, but my fascination with new and interesting foods would not be a disappointment at all! If I told me “We’re really into brie and canning salsa” we’d be delighted!
I personally don’t care much for sponsored foods but I acquired some post Malone oreos that are pretty good. They’re super sweet though so 1 pack lasts like a month.
Zucchini is pretty alright.
And cucumbers… eggplants… squash… pineapple… 😊
Gotta have something to believe in. Might as well be Luxardo cherries.
I mean… if you want to make a proper Old Fashioned…
Mind reader!
Grapefruit, mostly.
Grapefruit reacts badly with or nullifies a loooot of medications :/
A choice of groceries? Mister Moneybags here has so many choices for his groceries he has the luxury of having a preference of some over others. Ladies, if you go home with this guy you get your choice of breakfast the next morning. /s
Seems like fine small talk to me.
I’m eating kiwis every day, including the hairy skin.
Colorado jack white cheddar popcorn. Literally the best popcorn I’ve ever had.
I was feeling extravagant recently and picked up some Blackberry Dr Pepper.
