I can imagine how difficult it would be to get out of the bulk shopping habit. I go once a week, I think having to go every couple of days would make me feel like sisyphus! It would be a never ending toil. Those pancakes look delicious! I can imagine how difficult it would be to get out of the bulk shopping habit.

I like carrying my own bags too! It took me ages to get in the habit--and I confess that I had quite the collection of paid bags--but now I remember every time ;-) Orangesplaash, I leave most of my touch and feel and see shopping for my little trips to the store but do order the old standbys (dog food, tp, tinned tomatoes, wine, sparkling water, etc) online.

I have NEVER seen anyone eating anything in the grocery store here. And for that matter, I've not seen people eating in their cars... nor on their bikes. I have not seen any drive through fast food places either. OMG, this made me laugh.
