Re: Quality of food - getting worse?
The answer is to grow your own vegetables, if you have not the garden space, try a local greengrocer who is probably buying fruit and veg from local gardeners. -When you have sampled home grown peppers you will never again be satisfied with the foreign stuff in the supermarkets.Re: Quality of food - getting worse?
ive noticed you rarely get a nice tasted Tomato, Spring onions,new Potatoes like in years past , is it because they are massed produced ?.Re: Quality of food - getting worse?
I haven't noticed a difference but then I am 'picky' and like to shop at 8am before the armies of the great unwashed have touched anything and all the produce are still fresh.Re: Quality of food - getting worse?
Some foods need to be sold ripe some unripe. You might want some avocados but don't plan to use them that same day. So I have no issue with them selling both so long as they are properly labelled.Re: Quality of food - getting worse?
Remember a lot of stuff is treated with a preservative or kept refridgerated for a long time if coming from abroad to stop them ripening before point of sale.Re: Quality of food - getting worse?
Ive noticed how much of the fruit and veg in supermarkets is just bland tasting and awful...I do try to buy from a small greengrocers in town which sell a wide variety of stuff...eggs I buy fresh from my neighbour free range laid the same day.
