For example, if you would like to buy milk and cookies, say \u201cAlexa, add milk to my Amazon Fresh cart\u201d or \u201cAlexa, add chocolate chip cookies to my Prime Now cart.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">After each entry, Alexa will recite \u201cWhat else?\u201d until you finish placing all items in your cart.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Note that Alexa\u2019s Grocery Ordering Feature can\u2019t make a definitive product selection using a broad term. For example, saying \u201cAlexa, please add chicken to my cart\u201d won\u2019t automatically add a specific brand, size, and type of chicken to your shopping cart.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Instead, you\u2019re prompted to make a selection for \u201cchicken\u201d from the Whole Foods Cart page. Other generic terms might prompt Alexa to select items based on past purchases or to choose from best-selling products.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Upon clicking or tapping on \u201cChoose Item,\u201d Whole Foods will pull up all results for \u201cchicken.\u201d From there, you\u2019ll have the option to view the product description and add it to your shopping cart. You also have the option to pick a quantity (Prices are updated in real-time.), switch an item, or delete the entry.\u00a0<\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-736644\" src=\"https:\/\/www.howtogeek.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/fresh-shopping-cart.jpg?trim=1,1&amp;bg-color=000&amp;pad=1,1\" alt=\"Amazon Fresh shopping cart page.\" width=\"650\" height=\"450\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Additionally, Alexa will occasionally add an unintended product to your shopping cart, especially when specifying a quantity.

Asking Alexa to purchase a 6-pack of soda or a carton of eggs can yield unwieldy results that require you to make selections on the Checkout page, which sort of defeats the purpose.
