You are very fortunate in that.
Produce in our (only two) local supermarkets is generally old and visibly
wilted. It's just not good at all. My husband didn't even recognize chard
in the store as being chard (he knows what it looks like because we grow
it), it was so wilted and sad and old looking (just this side of slimy).
Plus there's no taste to it.
