Most Americans buy a lot of groceries at once because most Americans don’t have quick access to grocery stores, and buying smaller portions of groceries costs a fortune.
I can buy a week’s worth of groceries for a family of 4 for about the price of 10 days of groceries for one person. But it requires being able to haul a lot more than can fit on a bike. And for many of us, the store is also a long way away with no public transit and in a place where the temperature may be lethally hot for months at a time.

I tried saying “bippity bopping boo” just now, but it didn’t move my house 20 miles closer to the grocery store.

man, it’s so wild hearing that the nearest grocery store is 20 miles away. You guys have created unnecessary problems for yourself. It’s so shocking how rough you guys have it and how non-chalant you are about something which is a no-brainer for the rest of the world.
never seen more chumpier chumps than Americans.
