sure, if you are in the little restricted areas where this is possible

What do you mean by little restricted areas? Because I could do it anywhere in the United States. And that doesn't seem like a little restricted area.

How do you do that? Monero is one of few coins that interested me back in the day, so I am not a hater at all. But adoptation is very much lacking, and i I have no idea how you but groceries with xmr.

Coincards.com gets me an instacart giftcard. Instacart card gets me my local grocery chains, local grocery chain store gives me food. I eat food and am eating monero.

That's true. It can also be done in Europe and Canada. So you at least have to combine those together. So you're probably looking at maybe 10%.
