    My staples:

    Foster Farms 99% Fat Free frozen chicken breasts
    Frozen or fresh cuts of salmon, shrimp, other fish
    Fage 0%
    LaCroix sparkling water
    Thomas whole wheat english muffins

    ....and produceproducePRODUCE

    Last pasta I bought was Pappardelle's at the Farmer's Market, I keep brown rice in stock and also make sure to have oats and cereal (Cascadian Farms or Kashi) on hand as well. Seriously that is what it has come down to. I keep out the middle aisles and keep to the perimeter of the store.

    I love food and look forward to grocery shopping all the time!!
