- icelancer 8y agoFruit and vegetables are ludicrously cheap where I live at Farmer's Markets and such that are open normal hours, year-round. People still love buying boxed and processed food for many, many reasons. If the fruit and veggies got 20% cheaper I am positive it would only help the people already buying the very cheap produce and attract basically no new business.
