generic-grocery gawk

Refers to the astonished stare that you assume when taste-testing two or more brands of a particular supermarket-offering and unexpectedly discover that you actually **prefer** the lower-priced store-brand (which traditionally would be expected to have a "weaker 'n' thinner" flavor/texture), rather than a costlier "big name" product.
Being on SSI and Food Stamps and thus having a very-limited budget, I am used to just buying the "el-cheapo" store-brand of groceries whenever I can stand their usually-milder-tasting flavors. Occasionally I do "splurge" and buy the pricier "fancy-pants" foods, though, when the taste is dramatically better, such as Nutella hazelnut spread or Armour Vienna sausage. One startling exception to this latter condition, though, was in the case of Dinty-Moore beef stew as opposed to just the Great Value brand... I bought a can of DM just to try it out in comparison to the WalMart brand, and I had a total case of generic-grocery gawk --- the Dinty-Moore brand was absolutely a-w-f-u-l, whereas the richly-tasty Great Value stew won hands-down! Boy, ya never know till ya try it, do ya???

Grocery store

1. A place where you go to buy five things but somehow leave with twenty, none of which you actually needed.

2. A chaotic battlefield riddled with ugly severely obese people buying gazillions of junk food blocking the aisles and cash desks. Carts have a mind of their own, and every checkout line is either way too long or moving at a glacial pace.

3. A black hole of disappointment with often expensive or poor-quality or spoiled/about-to-get-spoiled food (especially fruits or vegetables), which somehow occasionally also includes food with zillion preservatives (!) (i. e. desserts, etc.).
Examples:

A:
Person 1: "I swear, every time I go to the grocery store, the fruit is already halfway to moldy."
Person 2: "Classic. Grocery store trips are just scavenger hunts for disappointment."

B:
Person 1: Today I bought a dessert and when I opened it, it was moldy!

Person 2: Typical stupid groceries...

C:
*person 2 goes shopping*
*returns after over 1 hour*

Person 1: Why it took you so long?

Person 2: Cuz the checkout lines were totally riddled with obese people buying tons of sweets and other junk foods as if it were supplies for 2 months blocking cash desks.

grocery gas

Fuel bought at a place outside of a major gas company.
Friend A: Man, gas prices are getting crazy-high lately. It's up to 2.48 a gallon.
Friend B: I told you about that. Better off going to Ingles or Kroger and pump that 1.98 grocery gas and keep it moving.
