I believe it. Learning how to operate a machine to control what gets displayed is such a distraction, in and of itself. Endless diversions and digressions, even if the devic has no internet. Procrastination just explodes exponentially.

Aren’t there local ordinances in some jurisdictions, requiring an orderly yard about the house? For sure, in many places there are laws regulating tree count and what you can and can’t chop down. I swear I’ve heard of fines for unmowed lawns too.

It really depends on the specific super market you visit.

Some of them are really bad. Others are really incredibly and amazingly good.

The fresher the food, and the greater the variety of products, the better. Some chains seem to stock just massive amounts of commodity agribusiness food, but more selective stores will put in the extra work, and provide a rotating selection among many different options, and limit the mass-produced factory food.

Sometimes, within the same chain, it can boil down to the managers and the degree of control they have over stocking the shelves, or the amount of effort they're interested in investing in (or believe in the value of) putting thought into the products they stock. In New York City, there is a HUGE degree of variation WITHIN CHAINS, varying from neighborhood to neighborhood.

So, if none of the stores within your town are great, maybe try the next town over? You might notice a big difference, even if the sign outside is the same.
