A related best practice is that your actions should clearly describe what is to be done, as if you are delegating the task to some assistant who can't be relied on to figure out what you meant. That assistant is usually you, a few days later, when you've completely forgotten why you put the cryptic action in OmniFocus :-)

"Sugar" is probably short for "Buy sugar", agreed, but "Apple pie"? Did I want to buy one, or buy the ingredients to make one? If I printed or emailed the list for someone else to do for me, everyone's going to be happier with verbs and clear descriptions.

I'm not quite sure if you are asking to see all of the actions (Lucas' answer handles that well), or if you are asking to see the action group itself show up in some listing (in other words, you want to see "daily shopping" in the list of things to be done today, not "buy sugar"). If your question hasn't already been answered, perhaps you could clarify it and we'll take another whack at it.
