Angela Simmons did not coin "Food Shoppin"

So I was catching up on my recording of this weeks' "Runs House" and Angela kept mentioning how she needed to go "Food Shoppin".

Having not lived in NJ since like, 1992, I had totally forgotten about that phrase.

It made me laugh. Eric was like, WHAT did she say? He had NEVER heard that phrase before.

I was IM-ing with my friend, Cathy and was telling her about it. She grew up in NJ too, but hasn't lived there for a long while. She had totally forgotten about it as well.

I got to thinking, that probably outside of the NY-NJ-CT maybe even PA area, that no-one probably uses that phrase and hearing it on TV they might think it's some new fangled hip-hop girl saying. LOL

I also got to laughing about how it's apparently necessary in NJ to distinguish what kind of shopping you are doing... Mall Shopping, Clothes Shopping, Food Shopping, Car Shopping, etc. LOL

I need to go message my cousins on MySpace and give them a good ribbing. :)
