Reply #13: our local store says liability issues dictate how they handle stuff - >

used to have a dead vegetables rack each morning with big bags of off produce like mushrooms, peppers, and lots more.
then their attorneys recommended stopping that as they might be liable for a customer's illness if such food had been identified as less than prime.

too bad. in european local markets produce used to be priced according to condition, becoming cheaper as it "aged" until it reached a condition where nobody would pay anything. that's too sensible for American stores.
