One of the interesting things about the UK, demonstrated I suspect by this comment, is how incredibly tied to social status / class they are. Your supermarket is arguably more important than say, your car, or your watch, or whatever else. I remember people being bullied at school because their parents shopped (or it was claimed they shopped) at certain stores. Really quite bizarre looking back.

That said, arnonejoe isn't wrong... (well a little. M&S and Booths are good too.)

I just went looking for a TikTok I'd seen about this and discovered that UK supermarket class distinctions are an entire genre on TikTok. Here's the one I liked: https://www.tiktok.com/@willdhallam/video/754043555780598504...

This one is good too (I really like Phil): https://www.tiktok.com/@philc84/video/7316965660096023841
