Sounds like my normal shop, Bath! Apart from the odd frozen pizza/garlic bread.

I usually buy dried herbs as our garden is so small we don't have room for herbs. We've tried but the other veggies just push them out the way. Given that I have studied Chemistry at Uni (just finished that course) I can recognise a lot of things. I do buy things for DS's eczema, but that's not foodstuff.

Thing is - my in-laws won't eat pasta as it's "too foreign". So limiting myself to stuff Grandma would have eaten as a girl means most of my food is off-limits. No rice. No pasta. Only pig-meat (they were pig-farmers so didn't buy in other meat). No tinned tomatoes! I do cook my meals from fresh, buy local or fairtrade, but giving up my son's favourite meals just isn't going to happen.
