    Back then they called it a “grocery store”. But we don’t use that term anymore because it’s old fashioned.

      I’ve literally never heard anyone call it anything other than a “grocery store”. I know of the word “supermarket”, but I’ve never heard anyone actually say it in public in my 38+ years on planet Earth.

        Yeah same. I’m referencing a Trump speech where he talked about “groceries” being an old fashioned word.

      Are you tilting at their use of ‘food shop’? Because that isn’t being used in place of ‘grocery store’

        I’m riffing on Trump recently learning the term “groceries”.
