My grocery store wants to know my BMI

If they were interested in my location they could request location data. What are the odds they are doing this to directly market products to people based on health data?

Of course, yes they do. This appears to be one more layer on top of it. And surely they wouldn’t share that information with the pharmacy, right?
Well, you wouldn't get Jewel's discounts at all then. I stopped shopping there because they switched to app coupons but not everyone has multiple grocery store options
I've never heard of a Jewel's grocery store before, so nothing of value is lost to me.
I'm just explaining why someone would have a grocery app installed, not trying to talk you into shopping there. They've made the store worse in many ways beyond app coupons. Like getting rid of most of generics
