It's been over 4 years now that I've noticed that almost all fruits go bad instead of ripenning.
Is it just me or is anyone noticing this? I'm not one of those people who forgets about their fruit, I watch it all the time and this issue is getting out of control, it's a waste of money and produce.
Have these fruits been frozen somehow that do not allow them to ripen normally once thawed out? I check the stickers to see where they come from (Pears/south africa and they always go bad!)
They look perfect and firm and then they just never hit ripe but go straight to bad, from the inside out!
I've tried to stick to buying local, so Ontario fruits only but you know the peaches have done the same thing to me in the last few years, they're not like they used to be when I was a kid.
What's going on?? I've just about had it with some fruits that I won't even buy them, it's really sad.
Please share your stories or tell me if you've noticed the same thing.
I avoid the Loblaws superstore as their fruit is really already going bad in there but my no frills has a great selection and everything looks beautiful but once I buy it it simply does not ripen, even in the store there is evidence of fruits not ripening properly as I've picked up a bruised rotting fruit that looked perfect on the outside once or twice right at the front stand.
