    I don’t comment often and I do know you Squid but you’re wrong on this. Aldi had great food and especially great produce. I’ve been going there for more than 3 years exclusively.

      I wasn’t commenting on the vegetables at Aldi except going with what other people were saying about them I was talking about this, which I found to be ridiculous:

      You should really make fresh produce shopping more of a daily activity as you need it.

      That is beyond what most people should be expected to do and it is beyond what people have done historically and it’s just not how most vegetables and fruits work.

      I’m not surprised that isn’t true of Aldi because it would be bad business to buy old produce that was on the edge of turning rotten.

        Going to a local market to buy fresh produce has been the norm throughout history. In the past century it has changed but for billions of people, buying what you need for that day is still the norm, I know I still do it.

          Going to it every day? No it hasn’t.

          No one has told me which vegetables last less than a week yet.
