If we are going to extend the default User model provided by django, we need to rename it as to avoid naming conflicts.
from django.contrib.auth.models import User
u = User.objects.get(name="jon")
print u
# -> <User: jon>
from fridgefiller.lists.models import User
u2 = User.objects.get(name="jon")
print u2
# -> <User: jon>
Since the lists app User model inherits from the django.contrib User model, the u2 object has more fields than the u object EVEN THO they are kind of the same object.
