Obviously. It was just a suggestion. Thanks for the agreement ๐
Yeah. Not talking about the bullshit supermarket delivery service. That is awful. A new system built from ground up. Really cutting out supermarkets entirely. Work with local producer's to consolidate in service hubs. Then move from out of those zones.
Fresh fruit and vegetables really needs a different system entirely.
I have heaps of veggies currently and most are going into compost or to the cows. I can consume the amount a single zucchini outputs, let alone 4.
Yet other than putting it in a food bank where it will likely rot. I have no other options.
There's millions in a similar situation. It doesn't benefit me to give it away not does it benefit me to produce tonnes of waste.
Supermarkets are in exactly the same situation. Summer rocks up and they start basically giving away produce or it will spoil.
