Aspect-oriented supermarket

Some more examples of the Tyranny of the Dominant Decomposition, at the Porter Square Shaw's:

• The ground turkey is not in the Turkey section, it's in the Ground Meat section.
• The Kashi brand cereal is not in the Cereal section, it's in the Wild Harvest section.
• The grated cheese is not in the Cheese section next to the Deli, it's in the Cheese section next to the Milk.

I feel like I need a card catalog.

You have to classify the two cheese sections: Cheese section near the deli == Snob Cheese. Cheese Section next to Milk == Lowbrow Cheese and Cheese Food.

It's true, snobs just have their personal chef do the cheese grating.
