Oh, I love these twitter examples! (Twitter is great for these 'Reader's Digest' type, slice of life stories). Substitution is just a hard one to figure out on the app, which is often a mere substitution even when it works well, vs. a range of actions available for customers while in store (change recipe, change cooking menu, and serendipitous discoveries).
Groceries are complicated, and too much ground to cover, but will make up on pop culture, next time!
