Anyone else noticing produce problems in their area? Seems no matter where
I go, they have more bananas than usual. They do look good but none of us
are big on those so don't need. As for the rest... There seems to be less
variety than usual for this time of year, and often I leave the store with
less than I wanted or even an alternate thing. And it's not just one store
but every store.

Husband loves asparagus. I got some that was good but can't remember where.
Two other stores had none. Then I found some but it was really big and
woody.

I wanted green bell peppers. I was craving them. But all of the green ones
were so wrinkled and mushy I was a bit shocked that they were even out there
for sale.

Have to really pick through the onions to find good ones. Stuff like that.

This may have somewhat to do with our weather. Draught. Then too much
rain. Freak heat wave. Now cold. Or it may have to do (at least with some
stores) with whatever they are doing with the Albertsons/Safeway/Haggen
mess. Dunno.

I will just be happy when I can get a good salad again. Having to make do
with greens, onions, nuts, beans, olives and rationed tomato. Because when
I do find a good tomato, it's usually just the one. That's not necessarily
a bad salad but I like other veggies too.
