    I was about to correct you on that but I looked it up and you’re more correct than me.

    I thought groceries were more like packaged goods and not necessarily edible.

    Like here in Australia if I went to a super market and bought steak and veggies I wouldn’t say “I’m just out buying some groceries”.

    Another example, “I buy my veggies from the veggie shop, steak from the butcher, and then other groceries from the super market”.

    I guess it is a somewhat old term. becoming less popular I suppose.
