Comparing and Contrasting... We do it more than you think!

We compare and contrast things on a daily basis, but do you realize we are really doing it? When we are standing in the supermarket trying to pick between two items we don't think let me compare and contrast between these two. For example we automatically look at the calories, protein, or even the price to see which one is the best fit. Or when we are waiting for the big game to start and the announcers are talking about the two teams. They are clearly comparing and contrasting the two. They are pointing out there negatives and positives. The only time I really think about comparing and contrasting two things is when I have to for a paper, or when it is an assignment. Truth is we all do it everyday.
