What grocery items do you never buy?

[AmberTurnerCo]

I would
Alcohol
Crisps apart from Pringles

I don’t buy fabric softener or washing liquid- liquid makes the machine smell after a while- it must leave a build up.

I stopped using fabric softener for a while, and our clothes and bedding felt horrible, so I am back to using it.

Processed meats
Canned vegetables
Canned meat
Kidneys
Canned fish
Packets of savoury rice, pasta etc
Packet sauce mixes
Full fat milk
Pork
Evaporated milk
'Red' cheese

More....
Frozen veg except petit pois
Frozen Yorkshire puds and roast potatoes

Fizzy drinks

Butternut squash
Sweet potatoes

Fabric softener is one of those weird "MN" things that all the bloodhounds here claim they can smell from 100 paces like scented sanitary pads (does anyone even use them?) or tuna sandwiches.

Tea or Coffee. We don't drink it. I was never given it as a child and never gave it to my kids.

Preprepared foods eg ready meals, sauces in jars, frozen roast potatoes, frozen Yorkshire's, packets of stuffing or white sauce
( I do buy pizzas occasionally or pesto from the chiller )
Gravy granules
Sweet biscuits and cakes
Ready chopped carrots or mashed potatoes
Air freshener
Fabric conditioner
Wipes of any sort
Probably quite a lot more

pot noodle
quinoa
stock cubes
stuffing mix
candied peel
fruit salad

Surely it would be easier to list what you do buy? The list of what I don't buy is extremely long!

Cereal
Alcohol
Fizzy drinks
Fake meat or cheese
Back bacon
Tomato purée
Baked beans
Sliced bread
Scones
Margarine
Jelly
Tinned meat
Packet sauce mixes
Cornflour
Offal

When people say they don't buy any tinned veg does that include tomatoes/passata and baked beans ?

Yes and sweet corn? And what about chickpeas/kidney beans/broad beans? (I suppose not technically vegetables...)

Fabric softener
Fish
Margarine
Zoflora
Squash or cordial type drinks
Full-fat soft drinks
Ready meals

I don’t go to the shelves/aisles stocking:

Baby products
Pet products
Sanitary products
Biscuits and sweets
Alcohol
Ready meals
Cereals
Milk

Or tea and coffee, although DP does.

I buy tinned tomatoes, beans (because I’m too lazy to cook them from dried) and baked beans but no other tinned veg. Frozen sweet corn and peas are nicer than tinned (IMO).

I don’t buy any pet stuff from the supermarket either, even though I have a dog. None of the supermarkets stock good quality dog food (that I’ve found anyway) and they all sell utter shit like Bakers.

Tomatoes are a fruit. Beans are legumes.
Although both are used as a vegetable, they aren't.

Yes coffeeandrice I’m aware of that (as I said in my post) but ime most people refer to them as such, which is why I’m interested to know.

Actually, @HarrietM87, I was replying to @frumpety.
No need to take offense as I didn't mean any.
I never saw your message.

Kitchen roll

So if I pour some white vinegar into the fabric conditioner compartment of my washer, it will stop DS's socks from being crunchy?

fabric softener
coloured toilet roll
tins
Ready meals
cereals
Marg
packets sauce
juice
lamb
pine nuts
mint of any kind
coffee
basil.
