Really? I am not seeing this at all and hardly know anyone of any age who does most of their grocery shopping online.
Maybe for certain things (boxed and canned goods) but people still like to pick their own fresh stuff (fruits, vegetables, meats, etc.) themselves in person based on what they look like.
There may be an *expressed* desire (
it would be nice) to do one's grocery shopping online and either pick it up or have it delivered by a lot of people, but I am not sure it is translating into a big change in real life.
My family has experimented this in the past for a while, BTW. We were early adopters of online grocery shopping in fact.
