[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have to assume people who rely exclusively on delivered groceries are indifferent to produce quality, in which case there are probably many things we don't see eye to eye on.[/quote]

This is a cope. There’s no difference in produce quality. High end American grocers have spectacular produce. The rare occasion something is bad you just tap tap on the app and customer service removes the charge for the item. [/quote]

Bich please. Do you think Whole Foods is high end? I assume you do.

They are delighted to send via InstaCart all the rock hard pears, plums and peaches that will never, ever ripen. The rock hard beefsteak tomato that doesn't smell like a tomato at all -- and was sitting in the bin next to bin with actual local tomatoes that, while ugly, do have that summer smell.

Is that spectacular? How about the pretty, yet tasteless table grapes?  The canteloupe that, you guessed, doesn't have a scent and will not ripen properly.

I've had the same issue with Harris Teeter. USA produce in general is bleh, particularly on the East Coast. Why would I make it even worse by hiring an undiscerning shopper to throw the over-waxed apples in my box when the better apples were 3 feet away?[/quote]
