My recent adventures to the grocery have been without a shopping list. I feel that going without a shopping list gives you the opportunity to see what’s fresh and available in order to have the best tasting dish. The other part is that it feels like “hunting and gathering” and then bringing home what you find. While I love the structure of going to a grocery and knowing what you want and where to get it, I like the freedom of going outside the box.
Going outside the box has pros:
- You buy what’s fresh.
- No disappointment if the ingredients are not there.
- There are chances you’ll find more creative food ideas.
The cons:
- You spend a lot of time in the store.
- You buy stuff you don’t need.
- You buy stuff you don’t need.
With all this being said, I went out to the market without a list and came back with a great piece of sashimi grade tuna.
