[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm realizing I know a few people who shop too much for groceries go to many different stores to shop to "get out of the house" as ones person tells me. Then they can't eat all the said food and it goes to waste. I don't know how much money they're wasting but all of them are on a fixed budget and shouldn't be wasting it on food they can't eat. Do you know anyone like this or are you like this?[/quote] I don't know anyone who does this. But it sounds like a version of hoarding. The hoarders on the Hoarders show usually hoarded food as well as other stuff. The disorder exists on a continuum so they may or may not be in trouble with the condition. I think a lot of people buy stuff they don't really need: they buy more than one item if it's on sale or buy the giant size of something because it's cheaper by the ounce but then don't use it. I have an aversion to a super-stocked-up-kitchen. I find it overwhelming. We're all different. [/quote]
