Sure but generally a food doesn't 'go away'. It's possible though as I
said. It's more likely I shopped different places than he does now.
For example, Ala Moana was walking distance for me. I don't have the
impression it is from him (nor am I fishing for actual PII addresses
here). I don't know even for sure if he lives on Oahu which would make
a big difference.
