The local grocery store, where I shop, was have a sale last week on canned spinach. Buy one, get one free.

Some how, even a buy one get one free sale couldn’t motivate me to buy canned spinach. And while I like fresh spinach, raw or cooked, canned spinach is too reminiscent of my grade school cafeterias where the slimy green stuff was plopped on to my tray.

The store didn’t have a large display of cans on the end of the isle like they usually do for products that are on sale. Nor did they have a large number of cans on the shelves.

I guess they weren’t anticipating a run on canned spinach even if it was on sale.
