    Pfft, I always buy a frozen pizza specifically because I already know I’m not gonna feel like cooking after grocery shopping because it sucks. I don’t even pretend anymore. All that fresh food is for another day.

        I’m curious how your shopping trips look like to be called exhausting, i just bike to the store, scan the products, stuff them in my backpack, pay, and bike home. Takes 15 minutes tops if i don’t leisurely walk around looking at the shelves.

          I’m not the person you replied to, but when I go grocery shopping I usually buy ~$200 worth of groceries and expend a bunch of energy hauling them all up 3 flights of stairs to my place which can be tiring, plus traffic to/from the store, plus putting them all away, clearing space in the fridge, etc.

          I’d guess it’s a combination of the physical and mental tolls of grocery shopping.
