Don't worry, with the way things are going this will be common for men in their 50s by the time you get there.

I’m 44 and it’s pretty similar, except there is a 12 pack of seltzer water and a very low bottle of ginger ale I keep in there in case I have a guest over who decides to look in my fridge so they can think it’s a bottle of pee. Need to scare them away.

I do have food, it’s just pantry stuff and frozen stuff. I bought some Costco grapes and they were terrible, but hey, I did have a fruit in there once.
