Most food in supermarkets is now just slop. Foam for bread, veggies that have been grown as fast as possible and packaged as fresh despite being weeks or months old, sprayed with chemicals and shipped halfway around the world, meat raised in a shed and fed one food, which is then injected with water to increase it's weight, freerange eggs that were laid 6 weeks ago and have had their protective layer washed off so must be refrigerated...and on it goes.


I don't understand the downvotes. This is an accurate description of the food I get in german supermarkets at least.


Same here in the UK.

Being downvoted for stating the facts is very common on HN.
