Lot of people here complaining that grocery delivery sucks because the shoppers pick bad produce.
That's because the current business models treat grocery shopping as unskilled labor.
I certainly don't think that picking a good peach or watermelon is an unskilled job. In fact any time my wife gets complex produce like that it sucks and I have stopped asking her to buy any produce. Spending an hour to go and pick some high quality food is a skill that, if you want it done right, will cost you some money.
This is possible to do as even fancy restaurants have employees who they trust to obtain the correct produce that they need. All it needs is a consistent shopper on a week-to-week basis (so they can learn what you want) and the willingness of the customer to pay appropriately.
