Mallrat told Happy Mag the song is "about having a crush but not wanting to have a crush on someone. Being like, this is so annoying, I don't want this. I love being independent, so when you really like someone it can be annoying."[2]

Reception

AIRIT called "Groceries" "a heavenly pop hymn" saying "Its cascading vocal melodies, snappy beats, lovesick lyrics, and a chorus that will have set up a home in your heart well before you even finish the first play through."[3]
