Pastry: unadulterated convenience foods of any kind are rare. The big food manufacturers don't care about the health of their consumers, only about the profit they make by selling ultra-processed rubbish. I don't eat wheat these days, but I used to make short pastry using a food processor and it was very easy to make, probably no more trouble than buying a block, thawing it and disposing of the packaging.
(Don't get me started on food additives...)
I've had a look around our small local Warehouse and I agree, the groceries are largely junk foods that I would never buy, plus cheap milk that I also don't buy. We did buy some "Finish" dishwasher tabs there a while ago and they were either fakes or some kind of parallel import, we ended up throwing most of them away because they didn't get the dishes properly clean.
