It's not a personal choice thing most of the time, it's just the way our infrastructure was designed. I couldn't walk to the grocery store even if I wanted to.
The way shopping for groceries works here in the US is that we buy enough goods to last us a week or two. That simply isn't happening with just two hands and feet, or even a bicycle.
I'm not saying it's practical for everyone, especially large families. But there are more options than people may consider at first, simply because everything in the US is so car centric by default.
Electric cargo bikes are the last bastion of hope here. https://youtu.be/rQhzEnWCgHA
Where we live, we'd really have to drive to the store, that's it; However, we go once a week maximum to avoid more trips.
