Siri is confused when I ask it to send a message with the words "add apples to shopping list" to someone

When I use Siri to send a text message, everything works fine, unless I include the phrase "add something to shopping list" in the message. If I do that, Siri says "messages doesn't support the group shopping list, which group do you want to message"?

I then have to abandon the message and re-send being careful not to mention a shopping list. For instance the message will go through if I say "add apples to the list".

Could this be some confusion with Reminders or Notes? Same thing is happening with my spouse's phone.

iOS 17.5.1

iPhone 12 mini

Sounds like it, your sample of two...

Do something/ say something different and compare your results.

As mentioned, I've already tried this.
