...To Think There Is Male Shopping Brain...?

[AlteFrau]

Spouse said he'd do the shoppipng we needed yesterday, to stock up after the holiday break.

He went to the local High Street a few minutes away, and spent an hour shopping. On his return he said he'd been to two supermarkets, the two Asian run grocery shops and the chemists.

What he came back with
400 g cumin seed
1 jar mango pickle
4 bottles beer
2 toothbrush heads in contrasting colours - because the old ones were the same colour
Fancy little tomatoes
Sliced white sourdough

What he didn't get
Butter
Bananas
Frozen Peas
Bacon
Cheese
Milk

Thoughts?

Because it's a bloke whose not getting at right, it's a male husband............................

men are from mars - thats about it

Same here. DH is always the one who knows if we are getting low on tea bags, exactly how much milk is left etc.

It's about individuals, not gender. I hate letting DH go shopping unsupervised. He can follow a list, obviously. What he can't do is think on his feet about items that aren't in stock. If I send DS instead, he'll know that without aubergines we can't have parmigiana, and will buy other ingredients to make a different dish. DH doesn't cook, or rather he doesn't cook anything good. He can feed himself when required.

he can feed himself when required
That's a relief! 😁

He is an adult. He should be able to do simple tasks like completing a shopping list. He doesn't have a mental disorder FGS.
