Okay, so this morning I went to the fridge to get something to eat. I saw a package of ready-to-eat pies. They're called Edwards Key Lime Pie. I got them out to see how to serve them and I saw where it was made. It's from Suwanee, Georgia. Then when I finished eating, I went on the computer and then on Yahoo, I clicked on a link. It's about top places in live in. The tenth best to live in is Suwanee, Georgia. Isn't it deja vu that I see it again? Or was it a coincidence? Please explain.
And here's the link to the page:

It's a coincidence.
De ja vu is when you experience something that you swear you've experienced before (feelings and all) but you can't quite explain it or remember it.

That would fall under the category of a mildly interesting coincidence. Nothing too spine tingling, in my opinion. Deja vu is the feeling that you've experienced a particular event before, such as a conversation you're having with a friend.

I would say that it is coincidence. the fact that you read the package then within a short time frame you saw the same name again. If you had not seen the name on the package and then saw the name on the search you most likely would not have recognized it and it would not have stood out to you, but you did so you already had that name in your minds eye and it was readily retrieved and struck a chord in what you had just previously seen.!

It would be coincidence because you are only 1 of the many people who had a pie and went to the same web sight. As a matter of fact I'm doing it the other way around because I went to the web sight first and you got me thinking about a key lime pie. MMMMMMMM!!! Thanks by the way.

Coincidence. Deja vu is what your brain collectively familiarizes using sight, sound, texture, smell, and ambience or atmosphere. Our brains are always looking for familiar things as to make sense of our surroundings. Good luck!!! :)
