Ever since fruit and vegetables have become so expensive, my Kroger has a huge reduced bin. Everything is 99 cents. Bought wonderfully ripe pineapple, 8 huge granny smith apples, about 4 pounds of romas (makes great tomato juice) 12 limes and lemons mixed, Bosc pears and kiwi mixed. It seems to me, that the stores could lower prices instead of having these huge mark downs. This is not 99 cents a pound, but approx. 4 pound sacks. I take the fruit to school for the kids. It is amazing, they would rather have fruit than chips and sodas. Even with govt. price controls, kids pay 75 cents for fruit. There is something wrong right now with food prices. These are the fruits and vegetables that local farmers use to buy to feed local hogs. So sad. Such waste. Most of this produce was organic.
Shopping at Kroger, Reduced ripe produce and such waste. What is going on?
