Man, yeah. I’ve stopped buying anything food-related from Amazon, and I’m very hesitant to use it for anything that will come into contact with me or my family. If they integrate PillPack’s supply chain with their own, I would be extremely unlikely to even consider the service.
- djrogers 8y agoHave you actually received fake food from amazon?
- maimeowmeow 8y agoFood items can end up 2x+ times the price over a grocery store because there are hidden shipping costs. And many times the higher prices cause less people to purchase, so the item has a short experiation date. And Im concerned about knockoffs as well.

- maimeowmeow 8y agoI used to hear about family members recieving fake ferroro rocher in America many years ago. But here is an recent example in china. https://www.confectionerynews.com/Article/2017/02/08/Fake-Ferrero-and-Mars-chocolate-seized-in-China https://www.confectionerynews.com/Article/2017/02/08/Fake-Fe... If there was any incentive to create and sell a knock off product, it is only increased when Amazon provides laxadasial environment.

- 0x4f3759df 8y agoNPR interviewed the author of Real Food, Fake Food. Basically everything is fake, olive oil, fish, Parmesan cheese http://www.realfoodfakefood.com/real-food-fake-food-book-by-larry-olmsted.html http://www.realfoodfakefood.com/real-food-fake-food-book-by-...
- xkjkls 8y agoThat's far from an Amazon problem. Olive oil fraud has been a thing since before Christ.

- segmondy 8y agoLikewise! I don't buy anything food related from Amazon and won't buy medicine either.
