When you walk into one of the Net Cost supermarkets in Brooklyn, N.Y., you’ll be greeted by hints of chocolate and grapefruit and rosemary focaccia. And while the store actually sells those products, the smells you’ll smell are fake.
Fake in the sense that the artificial aromas are being piped in by five scent machines that are strategically located around the store. Chocolate scents near the candy. Fruit smells in the produce aisle. Wet cat food along the pet supply section. (Ok, I made that last one up.)

I've also heard to never go grocery shopping when you're hungry. I've been there, done that and I can guarantee you I buy so much more stuff thinking how good it'll be and then end up either not wanting it as much as I did or else not wanting it at all.
The aroma of a freshly visited bathroom in the toiletry aisle...lol

Sigh. Was that really necessary?
