Let's go to Ito-Yokado.

"Ito-Yokado was not just a supermarket, but like a member of the family, like a part of myself — that sort of presence." (From the afterword)

At the beginning of 2025, Ito-Yokado withdrew from Hokkaido. Ito-Yokado, which opened around the time the author was born and which the author's family had been using since before they had memories, was like a second home.

Shopping at a supermarket may seem like an ordinary everyday routine, but whether in sickness or in health, the supermarket the author visited countless times alone or with family was one of those important places that went beyond "just a place to shop."

In this zine, the author — who continues to love Ito-Yokado — passionately talks about what they felt while using Ito-Yokado, memories of Poppo and Famille, part-time work experiences, and products they want to recommend.
