I disagree. The state of produce in supermarkets is dismal. I
find zucchini with pocks and wrinkles from respisration routinely. I find sweet
corn with brown husks. I find apples that are soft and flavorless. I find lots
of produce that is subpar. I'm glad you get nice fruit from Idaho direct from
the growers. But that is a very minor exception. It is not the norm for the bulk
of consumers who have few alternatives.
And by the way, even so-called high-end markets offer some of
the same kind of product. Even though it may look better, it still has poor
culinary and nutritional value.
I'm glad you've found a reliable source for your customers.
But that does not mean the rest of America's consumers have those kinds of
alternatives. I hope they do,..soon.
