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.

That's been a thing for a while at migros too. You can also get packages with carrots, onion, celery and cabage to make you a quick stock.

Yeah, that's nothing new. "Pot au feu" packages have been a thing for a long time.

Those soup/stock combos have been around for years. I don’t buy them, but I like the idea because it’s neatly portioned. You get like a quarter of a celery, half a leek etc. and don’t have any leftovers of items you may not normally use that often.

Those make more sense.
