Episode 46 – Supermarket Sweep

In our 46th episode, Julia stocks up on the history of grocery stores and supermarkets. Get a price check on the backgrounds of various national and regional supermarket chains [including, yes, Rochester's own revered Wegmans], as well as a long receipt-sized list of all the ways that grocery stores use psychology to manipulate your shopping habits. Later, enjoy a quiz called "Clean-Up on (A)isle 5"! . . . [Music: 1) The Uninvited, "Too High for the Supermarket," 1995; 2) Frau Holle, “Ascending Souls,” 2017.
