It started the first day of the lockdown. Americans raced to the stores and bought every single roll of toilet paper on the planet.
But as we settled into the daily grind of the pandemic, our grocery-store shopping habits continued to evolve. A new survey published by C+R Research shows the dramatic ways we have changed.
Here, sadly, is the most dramatic change of all: Of the more than 2,000 people surveyed, 19% said they had witnessed a verbal altercation at a grocery store, and 11% said they had witnessed a physical altercation. Eight percent said they had been a participant in a verbal altercation, and 8% also said they had been a participant in a physical altercation.
