Does grocery shopping grind anyone else's gears?

I'm generally a pretty easy going guy, but the second I step into a grocery store I develop a burning hatred for every person I see.
Sometimes I think that there is a large conspiracy where the patrons of the store have coordinated their placement and movements such that they maximize the time it takes me to get everything I need.

I usually go at off peak hours.
Grocery shopping annoys me because 97% of things marketed as healthy are bad. The same percentage of items in a grocery store are useless. And I get unreasonably annoyed at the dumb decisions other shoppers make, kills me when I see carts full of junk.

Going to Wal-Mart is depressing as hell.

Thought I was alone in this. I despise going to grocery stores/mart-stores for the reasons you listed.

Yes. Happens to me every time I step inside a supermarket. The wait, the people, I don't know what it is, but something in there pisses me off.

I definitely feel an unhealthy rage rush through me when I see fat people with their fat kids on the chips/cookie aisle.

I love grocery shopping but I shop at a Publix with lots of hot tail walking around.

I actually go get groceries on Sunday mornings about 8 or 9 and pick up breakfast at the Panera near it. I get there and there are about 3 people in the store with me, makes it fast and easy. But if you frick around and wait until just after lunch you will get into the coupon a-hole's territory and wait for an hour to check out.

Loved when I worked third shift and shopped in the middle of the night on a weekday off night.
Stick to the outside aisles where the fruits, veggies, and tofu reside. There's an alarming number of people not shopping in that area of the store.

I refuse to go anymore. My wife does it all now. I never could find what I was looking for, and invariably I'd bring home the wrong thing or forget something "important" and hear it from my better half, so I stopped that argument.

I hate every consumer but me.
I grocery shop at Braum's and Walgreens. To hell with a grocery store.

i LOVE grocery shopping but try to shop at the smaller stores. buy most of my meat at a local guy's gas station - his family's been in the meat/sausage/boudin business for years

I never cease to be amazed at people's lack of awareness in public places, especially grocery stores. Like, you don't have to have eyes in the back of your head to be conscious of your surroundings and sense that someone is beside you or behind you and trying to get by. I've also never understood people who just take something off the shelf and study it for 10 minutes in the middle of an aisle like it's a diamond.
