That's true. I didn't pick the greatest example. With regards to grocery shopping, a lot of those things are decisions that need to be made only once. If I need to buy X product that I'm not particularly familiar with, I'll spend a little time deliberating the choices. I'd even say that the time needed to compare nutrition facts and cost isn't much more than the time needed to compare the flashy labels on the front, but it is certainly a more thought-intensive process. Once I've picked, unless something significant changes (a new brand comes onto the market, my choice goes away for some reason), it's a decision I only need to make once: after that, it's as simple as walking up to the shelf and grabbing that specific item.
