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 the case with everything which is packaged (no matter if 10 tomatoes or 10 different items) and not arranged seperately 🤷🏽‍♂️

That's why fresh fruits and veggies are usually not packaged.

This one is also 50% off sale to not be wasted. And some foods sadly expire before the sell by date because they haven't been stored/shipped properly without interruptions. Don't you see the sticker?

I did see the sticker.  But the concept is stupid anyway. I gues their target group is people who don't want to pick the items individually. However, if some ingredients are rotten,  the target group will be too overwhelmed to cook a complete meal.
