Gotta Have It!

I was scanning this week's North Carolina grocery store ad, and there's a section called "Everyday Essentials."

I'm happy if I just get grilled food once a season...

But then, in the same section, these were advertised:

According to my mom, these are "vitamins", so of course we'd need to take a few of them daily, right?
