>only noticable difference is that the buffet by the deli in my supermarket has been closed for the past year and was replaced with pre-packaged hot food
Sorry to hear that anon, I love how convenient those are (I work til 11 pm so having a ready to eat meal is a nice option). Same happened here early on but they've come back. With the regular stores it's the same as they used to be. At the high end grocer they ask that you wear those gloves that school lunch ladies wear. Small price to pay to get my beef stew, beef stroganof, pasta and sausage in tomato cream sauce, fork tender pot roast and last of all (pic related) the turkey breast with sage dressing (and these days roasted green beans) dinners. I call that store my 'Happy Place'.

I get a turkey dinner from a local grocer almost every week.

Sundays mean 'The Usual' for me.

Sunday's are full turkey dinner day.

Not that anon but I assume they have staff there to load up your plate with your selections. The high end grocer I goto on the weekends brought back their hot food bar. The have a staff member standing by and to get your to go container you have to apply hand sanitizer then put on the gloves food service workers wear. Fine by me as long as I get my usual sunday turkey dinner.

Yep. Before the pandemic I used to hit my local Lunds & Byerlys every Sunday to pick up this for dinner. Roast turkey breast, sage dressing and gravy. They still have a limited selection of prepackaged hot meals but it's not quite the same.

2 lbs of turkey breast, sage dressing and brown gravy from the high end grocer, with a mini baguette from a small local bakery. AKA The Sunday Usual.
