I have kids. I know a lot of people that have kids. Again, narrow mindedness.

You don't just go to buy STRICTLY what you need today. You buy something like 10% over each time. Within several weeks of shopping you'll have a full fridge, heck, even a full pantry.

Then you only need to top up when you go each day. And I'm being generous, you can go every 2-3 days, even.

There are comfortable solution, you need two things:

1. An environment that helps (most European cities).

2. A bit of planning/flexibility/smarts.

If you don't have 1. you're dead in the water, from the start. If you don't have 2., well... get them :-)

And the point of most of the US-centric replies to this subthread is that ...drumroll... we usually don't have 1.

Thankfully, I intervened when great grand parent comment said the above.
