I’m a very simple being and my grocery tastes reflect that.
But I will grouse about changing the layout in the store for the rest of the night if you don’t intervene.
I wouldn’t lead with that but there’s a lot of “foodies” out there. If you don’t talk sports or the weather, food isn’t a bad topic at a party. Everybody gotta eat
I’ve literally overheard multiple dinner party conversations about good finds from trader joes
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! 🦂🔥
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
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.
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.
Foreign born tomatoes. Figured I better enjoy them while I can.
Zucchini is pretty alright.
And cucumbers… eggplants… squash… pineapple… 😊
I’m eating kiwis every day, including the hairy skin.
I was feeling extravagant recently and picked up some Blackberry Dr Pepper.
Colorado jack white cheddar popcorn. Literally the best popcorn I’ve ever had.
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!
Could be her
Seems like fine small talk to me.
