Isn't it precisely modern grocery distribution that gave us carrots that taste like cardboard and tomatoes that taste like water? These fruits and vegetables were bred for storage and transport, not for flavor.
- toddsiegel 7y agoHa. Yes. Fair point. I was not precise in my wording. I was specifically referring the "last mile" of distribution that gets it to my front door. I want to go to the store, and pore the produce. I don't think Amazon, or grocery-start-up-of-the-month is going to fix that by removing people further from their food. They seem to optimizing for convenience, not the problem I referred to.
