When is it ok to taste the produce before buying it?

When I worked at Giant Eagle in college we always had customers who would eat bananas or give their kids bananas to eat. Then we'd find random peels on shelves rotten throughout the store. -

Kind of off topic but nothing pisses me off more than walking through a grocery store (Walmart more times than not) and seeing a pack of ground beef sitting on a shelf in the mustard aisle or finding a partially eaten container of olives back in the dairy aisle. Bunch of white trash losers.Ytowngirlinfla;1682036 wrote:When I worked at Giant Eagle in college we always had customers who would eat bananas or give their kids bananas to eat.

That's racist. Stop racial profiling. Could easily have been red trash, yellow trash, black trash. Come on!BR1986FB;1682037 wrote:Bunch of white trash losers. -

Call it what you want. Most of the people I see at Alliance Walmart are caucasian. Many are probably the ones you see on the Facebook "People of Walmart" site. The only others that I typically see there are the 32 Hispanic people who pile out of a van to go get 7 full carts of groceries, paid for with their SNAP card. I'm just stating the FACTS, that I see, not "profiling" or "made up." Pisses me off every time I see it. If this pisses people off and makes me a "racist", so be it. I see what I see.ernest_t_bass;1682040 wrote:That's racist. Stop racial profiling. Could easily have been red trash, yellow trash, black trash. Come on! -

I think that's a Walmart thing more than anything else. That place attracts the lowest common denominator from any demographic of people. On the rare cases I find myself in the closest one to where I live, it's Whitetrashapaloosa every damn time.BR1986FB;1682037 wrote:Kind of off topic but nothing pisses me off more than walking through a grocery store (Walmart more times than not) and seeing a pack of ground beef sitting on a shelf in the mustard aisle or finding a partially eaten container of olives back in the dairy aisle.

The only thing sadder than the patrons at the Alliance Walmart is the "mall" next door. I'm assuming rent is really low or that's the worlds greatest scrap booking store because that lady has like a billion square feet of space in there.BR1986FB;1682044 wrote:Call it what you want.

That is one of the worst malls I've ever been to. Apparently, it use to be very busy until Walmart arrived.I Wear Pants;1682135 wrote:The only thing sadder than the patrons at the Alliance Walmart is the "mall" next door.

sportchamppsI get acid reflux sometimes so I'll grab a bottled water to help and pay for it when I leave the store. How that could bother anyone is beyond me.

I have seen people do that before. Doesnt really bother me per say, but not something I would ever do.sportchampps;1682193 wrote:I get acid reflux sometimes so I'll grab a bottled water to help and pay for it when I leave the store. How that could bother anyone is beyond me. -

I witnessed something similar when I worked at Kroger's in Mansfield years ago. Except this was a group of younger kids, and their caretakers instantly took the fruit away from them. One kid grabbed a tomato and took two huge bites out of it. The caretakers offered to pay, but the produce guys didn't seem to mind. I think they just threw the fruit away.BR1986FB;1681668 wrote:When I was a kid, my father owned/operated a fruit stand at his house. I was over there one weekend (parents divorced) and this family pulls up and gets out of their car. Their son was enormous and I believe he may have had Downs Syndrome, or something. The kid walks up to the fruit stand and just starts picking up random pieces of fruit, taking two or three bites, and then putting the partially eaten fruit back into the basket. The kid must have done this with about 8-10 apples, pears, peaches, etc and I'm looking at him like "WTF?" Can't remember who was running the fruit stand that day but they must not have cared because they didn't say anything to the kids parents (who didn't seem to care).
