Weird supermarket purchases

surfingmamasurfingmama member
in July 2015 Moms
I can't be trusted at the grocery store to make sane purchases for our house. The list of random stuff keeps growing each time.

Peanut butter captain crunch, shake and pour, Nutella , Texas toast etc.

What's your weird purchases at the supermarket?

    When I am in the first tri and go to the grocery store, I almost always buy jo-jo potatoes from the deli. I either eat them while I shop or eat them in the car on the way home. But not pregnant? I have bought them maybe one time in my entire life.

    I literally bought a box of peanut butter captain crunch today! It's my fave.

    I also got some clams for DH to make me tomorrow. Yum!

    Ruffles potato chips and french onion dip.  This is one of my dad's favorite snacks and he had it all the time when I was growing up.  I never used to buy it for myself, until I got pregnant.   I do eat it in moderation, but there's just something about it that I can't shake during pregnancy.

    10 trays of Stouffer's mac&cheese. To be fair, they were on sale...
    So ate one for lunch today. Everyone at work was huddling like I was going to give it up to the first bidder. Fat chance!

    It's like a big steak fry or a potato wedge.

    Sourdough bread has been my thing! normally we don't keep bread in the house, because we just don't eat it. But I've seriously gone through an entire loaf in less than a week. I'm not even sorry :)

    Chicago style popcorn is the best. Especially when you grow up in Chicago eating Garretts popcorn. If you can't find it, just mix cheese corn and caramel corn. Best invention ever!!

    I also purchased these items today and it's the second time I've done this. I wouldn't even think to get it prepregnancy. I figure there are much worse things I could be craving!

    Costco :(
    Anything on for a taste test I feel I need to buy it.
    It's just me and him so it's not even a that necessary I do Costco sized shopping trips.
    Most random was 3 huge things of peanut butter, 2 boxes of mandarin oranges, and 2 huge Costco sized trays of cinnamon buns.
    My fiance as so confused. I went for toilet paper

    Mixed fruit in black cherry gel. I have been eating the shit out of those things lately. Also organic fruit strips made from pureed fruit and that's it. OH MY LORD they are so good. 

    Also green olives. I ate four open-faced tuna melts for dinner. FOUR. DH is bringing me home fruit loops because of this post.

    Tons of cereal, even the cashier asked who they were all for and I said me and he laughed. In my head I was thinking no seriously me lol. Also stouffers lasagna, 5 bowls of this Caesar salad thingy, ruffles and ranch dip. Also 3 packs of the little Debbie Christmas tree cupcakes. When I got home Dh asked me did I get anything on the list and I actually didn't. We had to go back lol.

    Just made about 100 chocolate covered pretzels with sea salt. That satisfies some. All of you and your cravings are making me want to send the hubby to the store!

    I'm all about pink lemonade lately and I rarely ever drink it. And a lot of bagels with cream cheese and the bagel has to be toasted or it's not worth my time....but reading these posts is making me want some cereal (cocoa pebbles to be exact) :)

    Any and all things spicy. Yesterday I made chocolate covered, bacon wrapped cream cheese filled jalapeños. Day before was spicy bbq wings. I drain dill pickles slices and pour in jalapeño juice. All I ever want is spicy :(

    Me too!! Ruffles lays and French onion dip have been some of the only things I can stomach eating lately- that is until I threw it up yesterday. So we will see....

    Pickled okras, cinnamon toast crunch cereal, pineapple chunks, pink Himalayan salt (nothing is salty enough), and cucumbers... Oh and we went out to dinner last night and I was tempted to ask the waiter to bottle the habenaro oil so I could take it to go.

    I suddenly have a taste for the Sweedish Fish candy. It's not that I've ever disliked them, but they are a big favorite of mine right now.

    Right before I found out I was pregnant, I was buying mustard potato salad every time I went to the grocery store. I've since calmed down, but I'm pretty sure I went through about 8 little tubs of potato salad.

    A BLT sounds amazing, minus the t I don't like tomato. But I add the t again because I will eat turkey, bacon, lettuce, and mayo. So more of a club lol
