America's Favorite Grocery Store Will Come As A Surprise
Grocery shopping is one of those things we have to do, whether we like it or not. Over the last couple of years, delivery services like Shipt and Instacart have become more and more popular, allowing for us to shop online.
Personally, I like going into the store, especially to make my own produce and meat selections. As a mom, it's also nice to take a walk through the aisles ALONE. If you have young kids in tow, it may not be quite as enjoyable.
There are more and more options for shopping nowadays. We've got the big bulk membership stores like Costco, BJ's and Sam's. Low cost options like Aldi. And a favorite of many for their specialty items, Trader Joe's. For us here in Florida, we of course favor Publix, for the most part.
But what is America's favorite grocery store? It's for sure going to make you do a double take.
According to the crew over at EatThisNotThat.com, it's 7-Eleven. Say what?

Florida Restaurants Make List Of Yelp’s Top 100 In 2022
There are so many great places to eat here in SWFL and throughout the state of Florida and some restaurants here in the Sunshine State made a list of Yelp's Top 100 in 2022.
Florida is home to some of the best restaurants in the country. From seafood joints in Key West to chic bistros in Miami, you can find delicious food all over the state. Recently, Yelp released its list of Top 100 Restaurants in America and some of them are located right here in Florida.
A lot of time with these foodie lists, the restaurants that are featured are super pricy. This one though, has on it a lot of very affordable places where you can get a meal for less than $30, even in major cities.
To put together Yelp’s Top 100 Restaurants list, they asked Yelpers what their favorite places to dine were. Then, they ranked them by number of submissions, ratings and reviews, among other factors. There's a large variety of cuisine from Mexican, Mediterranean, Italian, Peruvian, Chinese, American and more.
As expected, the list has a lot of restaurants from big cities across the country, so it's very cool to see some Florida representation. With plenty of delicious spots throughout the state—from Pensacola all the way down to Key West—you can't go wrong when it comes to trying something new or indulging at an old favorite. Bon appétit!
