Grocery Surprises, What's Got Your Goat With High Price?

[Rod Hagen]

I've never ordered Uber Eats etc., I find it entitled and incomparable to my college years of occasional Chinese/Thai Food or Pizza deliveries.  And yet, hypocritically recently I have ordered Amazon Fresh.  It's much cheaper than my local grocery Chain, and the only disappointment was the peaches and nectarines, understandably because those are very individual items.  I feel dirty (but full).

I always wash the produce before eating it, and have never felt dirty afterward.

Some people have a stronger aversion to the merchant, or to the modes of production than to the innate properties of the things they buy, and that may be the source of their discomfort with their purchase.
