I bought a bag of yellow potatoes from this place today and half of the were rotten.

Is this normal?

No. How did you not notice when you bought them?

Take a few phone pics, call the store, they will give you a fresh bag, like as not.

>> No.14775731

They were advertised as golden Yukon potatoes, if that matters,

The bag looked fine. Nothing was unusual, but when I got home I had to throw away half of them due to being soft, mushy and having visible mold

Never shopping aldi again, unless it's for bread and cheese..

I regularly buy potatoes from Aldi and haven't noticed this. In fact, just least week I baked some that were two weeks past their best and they were fine.

There's nothing socialist about aldi. It's just a cheap grocery store. It has a CEO and publicly traded stock. If you had the money you could literally buy it and run the store as you see fit. It's sad that you really think any bad thing that happens is because of some abstract boogeyman

Yes. I bought white onions from them and they all were rotten inside. And the bag of bacon bits had green mold growing in it.

shill, you're acting like you never got a bad potato from every other store

>> No.14777617

You have to be careful buying fruit and veg and from aldi because a lot of it is on the verge of going bad. I guess that's one of the ways they cut costs. Don't buy anything unless it looks pretty fresh, fresh for grocery store veg, that is, and make sure you use it within a few days. Also you have to know what is prone to going bad and what isn't. Stuff like green onions are usually safe, they don't go bad for a week or more as long as they are firm when you buy them. Potatoes are easy to tell too, as long as they are hard and dry they should be okay for a good while, and as long as they aren't visibly bruised and covered in eyes. Keeping them in the fridge makes them last a lot longer. Most fruit I would avoid unless you plan on eating it literally in a day or two. Berries are sneaky buggers. They can go moldy if you turn your back on them for a split second. Know your food.

Russians and other eastern Slavs actually do have a higher genetic propensity for schizoid disorders compared to the average. That's why so many "Jews" (IE eastern Slavs who think they're something else) are fucking crazy.

I don't know if it's that they're trying to cut costs. It's just that they're a european company. Europoors don't know how to identify fresh produce.

Everything about Aldi is about cutting costs. You're just too used to the social engineering of a supermarket to understand.

Aldi is a lot closer to what a general store was than the american notion of a supermarket.

>> No.14779504

Has anyone noticed a massive drop in the shelf life of potatoes and onions over the last few years? It doesn't matter if I buy from Aldi, Walmart, local chains, anywhere I buy from has shit tier onions and potatoes now. They go bad much faster than I remember in the past.

The taters from Aldi are usually excellent because of the high turnover rate.

The problem is they do, and then Aldi sweep up the shit that's leftover for cheap. It's the same here, produce rots in days if you get it there.

Yeah I expected my dick to get hard when I was walking through the checkout line. The nasty slut at the register was eyeing my dick like what else am I supposed to do. The little fucker wouldn't get hard. That's why life is meaningless. It's all bullsbit anyway. They act like they don't care that you couldn't get hard one time. But then they keep bringing it up. Life tf am I supposed to do. They're putting estrogen in the water supply and soy I. All the food. Like of course I'm have ed and low testeroen. My penis is like a floppy rocket ship though
