Why Are Grocery Stores Ditching Loose Potatoes?

Ever notice your grocery store only has plastic-wrapped potatoes now? Shoppers at Sainsbury’s are not happy—one even posted a pic after their store stopped selling loose white potatoes. People are frustrated about having to buy more than they need (hello, food waste) and all that extra plastic. Some are even complaining to the store and on social media. Would you drive further just to get loose veggies? This plastic swap is sparking a real debate! #Food #GroceryStore #PlasticWaste

A new analysis claims the classic gin and tonic might actually be one of the least damaging ways to drink. 🍋 Compared to calorie-heavy beers or sugary cocktails, gin’s lower congener levels and tonic’s lighter sweetness make it a simpler, cleaner mix. The bitterness even slows how quickly people drink, reducing the urge to overdo it. Still, doctors remind us that no alcohol is truly healthy, even moderate drinking raises long-term health risks. So if you’re reaching for something “light,” this might be it, but the best choice for your body is always moderation. Be honest, is a gin and tonic your go-to, or are you team zero-proof? 💭

Chinese yogurt often comes in small, cute bottles, sometimes with cartoon characters. These are usually drinkable yogurts with added probiotics and flavors like strawberry or mango. The "baby bottle" design is for kids.... just a fun packaging choice. #EnjoyTheJourney

Sam's Club Snack Showdown: My Top Pick!

You know I’m obsessed with finding the best snacks for the best price, and Sam’s Club’s Member’s Mark brand is seriously underrated. After taste-testing a ton of options (from peanut butter pretzels to dried mango), I found the holy grail: Strawberry Yogurt Almonds. They’re sweet, crunchy, and honestly addictive—plus, way cheaper than name brands. If you’re snack shopping soon, trust me, these are a must-try! #Food #SamsClubFinds #SnackObsessed

One thing that helped me stretch my SNAP benefits was, buying bulk meat and slicing it myself. A 13 lb 75$ piece of beef from Sam’s, 7lb 20$ pork loin from Sam’s, and 2whole chickens from heb will feed my wife, my 3 kids, and myself for about 2/3 weeks. I buy lots of pasta and learned how to make Alfredo sauce from scratch. It’s a lot cheaper than buying everything prepared. Plus about 5 packs of 40pc water bottles. #SNAPStretchStories#FoodRadarCommunity#FoodSecurity#BudgetLiving

Found this in a soda I got Yesterday from Mcdonalds.

I got a large diet coke from McDonald's and left it in my car overnight. I went to throw it away today and found this in it. Any idea to what it is? #WhatIsIt #WeirdFinds
