I think most of us agree, but hey, she'll be quick to say she didn't ask
our opinions.

It's clear to me she's stepping in the way. According to her own post
it's hard for her to let her daughter pick out vegetables. She said as
much. I have no idea why. If I was the daughter, who has allegedly
accompanied her on so many trips to do the shopping, I'd just hop in my
own car (which her parents bought her) and go shopping without mom.
