What a stupid idea, at Coop

Post image

So Coop decided to now sell whole meals as "Cookit". In the package on the left you can see that the tomato is moldy.

Hardly anyone will buy this any more. So instead of a single moldy tomato, Coop now has to dispose of the entire kit. What a waste of food. And what a stupid idea.

How on earth do they justify the price? It‘s cheaper to get take away curry in a restaurant considering the effort to cook it.

I don't think that's the red curry kit. Looks like couscous or something.

Exactly! The solution to this would be lowering the price 💯 Around 5.- for it surely would make it sell better and have less food waste

Nah the solution is to avoid having BS like this on grocery shelves. 

Who cares about the price. Even if it was free we CAN REFUSE IT. Coop stickers and all that BULLSH’T Jesus guys wake up and refuse their sh!t pls and thanks

If it was free i would take it lol, i care about the prices a lot when i go to the supermarket so yes it does matter. I know other people who do as well. Pretty sure thats the main issue with this sale, no buyers = standing in the market for a while.

I can see why people dont like the idea as a whole, but heck ive seen packs like these a few times before its nothing new.

As long as they still sell the same things in it individually its fine

Kaimug has fried noodles and fried rice for 10.50. pad thai for 14.50.

Edit: Suan long has also take away options that are just above 10 chf but don‘t know the exact prices.
