Grocery Shrink Ray/Inventory Shrink

[Dysnomia]

I did once find pizza bites that were TWO YEARS out of date. Things can get pushed back on shelves, and it's a good idea to read such things for yourself.

I went to a supermarket in a nice area only to find bags of chick peas that were expired in march. I went back week after ween and they were still there. This is the bag of precooked beans in water. I eat a lot of them in salads and quick soups.

The next time I'm there I should alert the staff to take them off the shelves as the bags are getting really weird looking and it's only a matter of time before they leak rotten bean goo everywhere.

At least they haven been shrinkflated yet. I try to avoid those products as much as possible. I don't want to give them my money for less product than I should get.

Seems bags of cheese cubes at a local grocery store always have some moldy ones lately.

Where does the madness end?

Maybe a better question is "can it even end"?

I have noticed that cheese is speedrunning to mold. I just want provolone for my sandwiches. I buy it, it looks fine, expiration is in a month, and 3 days later, green.
I thought it was my fridge so I deep cleaned it, temperature checked each shelf, and cleared out all the old stuff.
Nope, Cheese has just gone to shit lately.

I see it is a good time to be lactose intolerant

What brand are you getting? My cheese lately has been fine for weeks

Brand seems agnostic, but the last one was sargento.

Should I spin a grocery thread? This doesn't really have anything to do with shrinkflation, it just sucks.
