People Are Trolling Hard After An Article Suggested "Millennials Hate Groceries"

"Yeah, those groceries. Look at them. Sitting there all smug. Boy, I hate groceries."

People — or, ahem, millennials — were generally confused when The Atlantic published an article with the headline "Why Do Millennials Hate Groceries?"

The article was inspired by an earlier Wall Street Journal report on a similarly serious epidemic.

The article pulls a plethora of charts and stats to suggest young people are moving away from grocery spending and toward snacking and eating out. It also, however, notes that the shift is not entirely attributed to millennial habits.
