We have a tight budget, so grocery shopping isn't that bad, usually. Everybody knows that we can buy food that is at least tolerable and cheap, so we can have money for other things. Like music. Which shopping for is infinitely worse than shopping for food.
The body has to be vegetarian because meat does make us feel sluggish and icky. Most of ours don't mind, although Connor, an avid carnivore, does, so he gets some hamburger meat every time and is satisfied with that. The rest of us don't mind fresh fruits and vegetables at all, though Leo must have some carbs so we buy a lot of fresh bread as well.
Our biggest issue isn't the food, really, but what to buy to drink. Some want strictly water, others want fruit juices, others want sodas or tea, or coffee, smoothies... And then there is the arguing over what kind of each to buy, like the debate about hot tea versus sweet tea. We buy more variety of things to drink than we do of things to eat. So our time spent standing still arguing internally isn't spent in the cereal aisle, but in the juice/Kool-aid/beverage aisle.
