Grocery and Habitual Food

Grocery shopping is very important in my family. We go grocery shopping once every month. It is usually me and my mom, while my little sister stays home. When we go my mom always get many vegetables, carrots, brocoli, spinach, cucumber, lettuce, and many others. She then gets fruits, apples, strawberries, cherries, bananas, mangos, peaches, plums, things of this sort. Once this is done she gets meat, fish, chicken and then we go on to buying yogurt, milk, cheese, juices. Towards the end my mom allows me to buy a couple of things that would not be considered healthy. Such as bags of chips and candy. We buy things that will last until the next month or more,and if anything is missing or is done my mom goes during the week and buys it.
My mom tries to get me and my sister to eat healthy. She constantly gives us fruits . She adds salads to our dinner and adds as many vegetables to our dinner as well. I find myself eating most of the things, but sometimes I do get picky.
I noticed many things while at the grocery store. Mostly I noticed that the healthy things were on the upper shelves. While the non healthy was on the lower. As if it was easier to get the things on the lower shelves Than to reach up and get the healthy things. I also noticed that the sections in which cake batter, cookies, candy and chips were very colorful and took up many shelves and multiple isles, while on the other hand the greens took up about half a isle. The variety of unhealthy items was greater than the healthy items.
