I had occasion to buy some Jersey Royal spuds at Tesco today - quite heavily discounted, possibly because some of the packets were approaching their sell-by date (I didn't check). Nothing wrong with that. However Mrs K did comment when we ate them that some of the spuds were going ever-so-slightly green.
It wasn't an issue and I'm not complaining. However it did start me wondering whether the quality of the fresh food supplied to Tesco in Stroud Green is any different from other stores in the same chain. Do supermarkets have policies that affect their distribution? Would customers in Kensington and Chelsea put up with this kind of thing?
Does any retail guru know?
