Fruit

The amount of poor quality fruit in most supermarkets no longer amazes, tasteless, turns quickly and tbph only fit for the bin not long after purchase.

Supermarkets specifically seem to pride themselves on the abundance of variety from a range of countries, but what are they really selling you, non ripe, cold stored, colourful shhite.

Known as perishables, they long perished or never even made it to a ripe stage before hitting the shelves, maybe supermarkets should be made to display the picked on date, rather than the best before date, consumers may find the fresh fruit that we are sold is not as fresh as we are led to believe.

That's cos i usually boot the ****er across the florr before it even reaches a shop.
 
Cheetham Hill... a bag full of fruit for £1.39, smells like a landfill because that’s where they’ve scraped it from after Aldi have thrown it out, turns to mush before you get it home.
 
The pineapple here is picked fresh most days as is red watermelon. You'll never know how good it is unless you try it, it's scrummylicious.
 
Good thing about living in Leicester is the market - can get fruit and veggies straight from the farm that had been picked a couple of days beforehand.
