A Shiny Discovery of Roasted Treats

I followed a warm, nutty aroma right through the open sliding doors and down the quiet grocery aisle. On a low wooden display shelf, small foil packages caught the overhead glow. I paused, taking slow, careful steps so as not to startle a little resting shopping cart nearby. Right beside my flipper rested a glossy green packet of seasoned roasted seaweed. I nudged the shiny corner with my beak, listening to the delicate, papery crinkle inside. It felt crisp and full of sea-breeze scents, resting so neatly alongside tiny sesame candy jars.
