I've noticed that if we put off doing a big grocery shop for longer than we should--and just run to the store for one or two items at a time--we wind up eating MUCH worse than we do when we doing the shopping regularly and buy lots of veggies. The stuff that lasts on the shelves and in the fridge for a long time tends to be the bad stuff.
