Fuck monopolies, fuck artificial scarcity, fuck kroger.
#eight years ago there was a metric fuckton of options at my local kroger grocery store#now there's the big brand names and kroger#and there's significantly less choice within it#instead of having over a dozen vanilla yogurt tub options I have 4#and it's kroger's fancy-ass organic probiotic yogurt that's exorbitantly priced#...which i do like. but I would NOT get if I had literally any other option#or a couple specialty brand name greek flavours#or kroger nonfat greek yogurt#I can't get any of the dozens of other items I used to get weekly#the grocery store has been rearranged to make it look kind of the same size it used to despite having significantly fewer products#and I mean SIGNIFICANTLY#I've noticed this at other big chained grocery stores too#fuck this shit#just. so fucking many things I can't get anymore#not because they don't exist!#but because my accessible grocery stores no longer carry it#and ofc they don't take it off their site so it's just perpetually out of stock#i'm so tired#and they won't special order stuff anymore#or start stocking stuff we want regularly that they don't currently have#i'm so fucking tired#the illusion of choice
