RE: Removing best before dates from fruit & veg - Veggie - 17-11-2022

Out of interest (maybe) I was given 2 net bags of 4 lemons.
Sainsburys Organic unwaxed £1.50, reduced to 75p, then to 39p then given away "No date helps reduce waste". Origin Spain
Co-op unwaxed £1.75, reduced to 96p, then to 63p, then given away "Best before 3 November". Origin South Africa

The Coop ones are yellower than the Sainsburys which have a greenish tinge but are organic and cheaper. If you need lemons you know where to shop now.


Out of even more interest - 2 lemons in each bag went mouldy at the same time.
..........and, Unwaxed lemons are cheaper in Morries.
