When I was in my twenties and living a fairly solitary lifestyle, I did all my food shopping at one store that was just down the street: Carrs Grocery in Anchorage, Alaska.Now I'm older, more social, and I need to cast my shopping net wider. Marriage and two kids means I'm shopping for four people every week, so there are more visits to more stores. And beyond my family, I interact closely with the 18 people in my lab. Some people consider our lab to be the most social in the department, especially when we host BBQs at the Dyce Lab throughout the summer. The food we eat at these BBQs is typically purchased from at least a half dozen grocery stores.
