Supermarket Smarts
Next time you walk into your neighborhood grocery store, stand in the front and scan the store from right to left. What do you notice? Which sections are on the outermost sides of the store? Which sections are in the middle? Most likely the produce, dairy, fresh meats and grains are on the outside. These are the foods which should take up the majority of your shopping cart. The inside aisles are packed with processed foods and junk foods. First off, before going to the store, make a list of the foods you need to buy. It can be helpful to plan out your menus for the week so that you know which foods to buy. As you walk in, make your way around the outside of the store first and then choose the specific inside aisles you need to go down. Also, make sure you’re not hungry when you go to the store. You may find a bunch of foods you think you might want, but don’t particularly need.
