[quote=Anonymous]I grew up going food shopping as a family in the 80's. My mom was the one who mostly cooked so she bought the food. My dad drove (even though my mom had a car and drove locally I think she didn't like driving) and packed the food and loaded and unloaded the car, and my brother and I were too young/badly behaved to be left home alone. So we went too. Any time my mom was sick and couldn't go I remember we'd follow her list to a T, and yet she'd always complain we got the wrong things or didn't magically read her mind by getting things she left off the list. Eventually my dad refused to go with my mom. He'd drop us off and come pick us up later. My mom didn't get out much and I think she saw food shopping as An Outting! So she'd meander through the aisles, read the backs of packages, and it would take two hours to get through the supermarket. I'd push while reading a magazine. My brother would try to hurry our mom along. We all hated it.[/quote]
