Study materials for grocery shopping? (lemmy.world)

I’m looking for anything out there that could help me navigate grocery stores in Japan? Maybe an Anki deck for food labels with proper kanji? I’ll be there for a period of time later this year and while my conversational skills are okay, I don’t know that I could grocery shop! I’ve got Genki 1 and 2 and some vocab cards for various ingredients, but they’re mostly hiragana or basic kanji like 肉 or 魚 or ご飯. Is there anything else I could get? Books, YouTube channels, anything that would help prepare me to buy ingredients would be appreciated!
