WTF is Veganaise?

Vegemite mixed with mayonnaise?

Vaginaise is the goop that oozes out after a good shag

[nickwm21]

Vegan mayo…. AKA canola oil and chemicals… not sure what you think you’re accomplishing by purchasing it other than disappointment.

Vegan mayonnaise

It’s sucks as much as regular mayonnaise but is supposedly healthier
I don’t consume it - used it to make Cole slaw dressing for Ms TBS. Dressed my cabbage with apple cider vinegar and sesame oil

Gross? How can you not love lox, bagels, capers and onions? Just think of them as weird little olives

pretty good IME^^ and I buy Kalamata olives by the very large jar

Heh, we had to make a list of “do not buy any more of these items until you use up the triplicates already in the overflow pantry” (yes we have an overflow pantry).

We currently have a lifetime supply of the items in bold on your list. We also have a lifetime supply of sweet chile sauce, chile garlic sauce, and black bean garlic sauce. Overall, our list of surplus items are about triple what’s on your list, but it took several trips to the store to achieve our level of inventory.

And I learned today we have three jars of veganaise in the refrigerator. In three different locations. I found one of them, and now there are two open jars. But they are all now in one spot.

A running list...can you imagine?!!

My wife has never not forgotten something that we need asap. I've suggested we could have a running list I could help with (to save me from the multiple emergency grocery runs every week right after her trip to the store) and it's obviously the worst idea ever

[dan_pdx]

We use the Our Groceries app and it's great. Everyone in your household can add to the same list, then you check items off when you go to the store. Anytime you finish something off, or notice it's getting low, you just add it to the shopping list.

I'm not saying it saved our marriage, but it does gamify something that previously was a chore

[Foggy_Goggles]

Does it allow you to organize the list via aisles/general sections of the store based on you regular flow though the store? Because that is key. You got from the top of the list to the bottom Produce>Health and Beauty/Cleaning.

And for the triplicate issue. There is a double check before you go to the store. If a spice looks low when I'm cooking, it's not the time to root through the rack. So I'll put it on the list to check later (usually with a not to check).

Point being, there is no top to OCD grocery shopping.

Yes, everything you put in is automatically assigned to a category (eg, "produce"), with the option to manually override and create your own categories. Then you can drag the categories around.

It is actually very good on toast. Lower in saturated fats, calories, and lower in cholesterol. I'm not vegan at all, but I eat it all the time as a substitute for mayo.

I’ve tried to instill “tactical” grocery shopping in my wife for over a decade and it’s not sticking. I just assumed this was the societal norm, ie you bring a list and attempt to grab each of those things in a somewhat efficient manner based on store layout.

Instead, I’m left with a woman who (1) makes multiple trips back to the same section [why would you grab all your produce at once from the produce section when you can go back to it when you find a new produce items further down your list??] and (2) grocery shops the way people clothing shop. If there is an aisle, she needs to go down it and browse. I thought we all had a decent handle on what’s in the store and we were generally just left with the choice of what do we want to purchase WHICH CAN BE MADE BEFORE ENTERING THE STORE.

I’m clearly in no way disturbed by this wifely strategy. In fact, my preference is to wait 45 minutes when my wife says she just needs to pop in for one thing.

I could type a list of things that are better on toast than Vegenaise but I’m not sure the TGR closet server fan can handle that load…

This is technically correct, but meaningless in practice. Look up the nutrition facts and compare Hellmans, etc. If you like it by all means keep using it, but they're both just jars of whipped oil.

This is when I tell the wife I’m hitting the bathroom then go play scratchers, eventually I “find” her and act like I was lost.

If you put a load on the toast I’m out

we had an MD in town who had practised in northern Manitoba and his wife always pushed one cart and dragged another cuz in northern manitoba if you didnt buy big you couldn't just stop in for one item, of course she didn't have to anymore but old habits die hard, last i heard they moved to way further away from a grocery store

[old goat]

Around here tactical shopping--at least in high season--is throwing a few items in the cart then having one person get in the line that goes to the back of the store while the other finishes shopping. Those of us who tend to shop alone are screwed. Although it's still more efficient than shopping with my wife.

We can order online and pick up at the store without even getting out of the car. Sure, they fuck it up sometimes, but holy shit does it make busy season more bearable. I get really anxious in grocery stores, mainly because of crowds, with or without the wife. It might have saved our marriage, and it honestly cuts an hour or two off my weekly chores. We also get some weekly meal deliveries. They are the shit. Makes life so much easier, and efficient. Now I have more time to drink and dirt bike.

I wouldn't go anywhere near the store with my wife if this is how things went. Holy shit.

You put it on the bread and then you toast it.

Or the other way, have you ever had a BLT??

Doesn't that fuck up the toaster?

Jesus! You toast it in a pan, like Anthony fucking Bourdain! What are you some fucking teenager that only eats pop tarts? You cook it in the god damn cast iron skillet that your mom uses when she makes me breakfast!
