Chief Stipe Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 I know this isn't exactly about racing but.... I went grocery shopping this morning - second day in a row. Miss the social interaction and had a bunch of bananas sitting on top of my trolley - apparently that's a signal. ? My neighbour dropped off a whole lot of field mushrooms from his dairy farm so I needed cream for the sauce and soup. There were no eggs at all on the shelves - maybe that is a silent protest from the chickens who have had a lifetime of lockdown! Anyway I had this craving earlier in the week for brussel sprouts. Found them in the supermarket - $10.49 per kg!!!!! Dearer than Pork! The prepacked ones - were $15.11 per kg! Fresh pre-packed chicken is cheaper! That's about a $1 to put each sprout in a plastic bag. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. I'll try organic next and then the lady finger variety. If I have to keep it up....the supermarket visits I'll take some plastic ones.
