Community-Based Grocery Shopping 2.0
I think that New Seasons should get a little more web 2.0 and integrate some of the social networking aspects of sites like Netflix. So, for example, I could see what's on my friends shopping lists.
Then I could recommend things like the maple-rosemary trout (it sounds gross but it was incredibly tasty) -- and while they're at it, they could make it so you could rate food and have a machine recommend foods for you. I think what's happening is, with all the choices in the world, we need technical help to develop and keep track of our own tastes. At least, I do. Too many choices means creating technologies to help us sort them all out.

Great idea. You're so helpful. Contrary I would want the capacity to point out the shortcomings in my neighbor's cuisine and shopping, using a charming anonymous avatar, listing each item's transport footprint, the geopolitical consequences, water waste toxins and non-recycleablity.
