    Back then they called it a “grocery store”. But we don’t use that term anymore because it’s old fashioned.

      I’ve literally never heard anyone call it anything other than a “grocery store”. I know of the word “supermarket”, but I’ve never heard anyone actually say it in public in my 38+ years on planet Earth.

      Are you tilting at their use of ‘food shop’? Because that isn’t being used in place of ‘grocery store’
