Some of you swear you don’t have them. ‘No, I go with whatever’ is what I’ve heard until I threw out a few options. Then, of course, real opinions arise about regulatory foods allowed in your household. I’m a gnat’s ass away from giving my dear husband a picture book of the groceries allowed to cross the threshold. I didn’t think I had so many preferences until my husband did the shopping. Then, it turned into a lip curling, nose flaring event as I sifted through the plastic bags (hello, why did I buy a pile of environmentally friendly ones for each car)? Everyday is Earth Day! Roast beef thinly sliced? Uh, I asked for roasted turkey. Generic cat food? We have a Iams/Fancy feast household here (yes, my cats fasted for a week when I tried less expensive brands). Store brand apple and cinnamon cereal, seriously? Arg! I can’t say that I have an allegiance to certain companies, other than the ones that I have tested just because. For instance, I did try every diaper brand in search of the ultimate ‘keeper' when I had my daughter. Pampers won hands down for me.
