Why are so many young people willing to go to the supermarket to buy food, but not willing to buy food from rural elderly people?

From a practical point of view, the vegetables grown in some farmlands are actually similar to the vegetables sold in supermarkets. They are fresh at most. In fact, the vegetables in these vegetable fields are also stimulated by fertilization and pesticide application. Yes, they don’t taste as good as purely ecological vegetables. Over time, I am no longer interested in going to the farmland to buy vegetables directly.

Actually, it’s not that people don’t buy vegetables sold by rural elderly. I am still very happy to buy vegetables grown by rural elderly. In my impression, the vegetables grown by rural elderly are grown with organic fertilizers. Spread pesticides and don’t use chemical fertilizers, so you can enjoy the taste of your own vegetables, and it’s also healthy and safe. But after experiencing being scammed while shopping for groceries, my impression has changed.

Two years ago, I saw an old man selling vegetables and some fruits next to the vegetable market. The vegetables looked quite fresh, and the old man said they were grown at home. When I saw the tender green appearance of this vegetable, I thought it should be a good vegetable, so I bought a handful. However, after I bought it home, I found that things were not as beautiful as I imagined. I discovered two problems here. .

First, the vegetables I bought were rolled up. They looked very tender on the outside, but they actually contained some cooked vegetables inside.

Secondly, these dishes taste no different from those in the wet market, and there is no difference in taste and quality.

From this, I can judge that these vegetables are basically impossible to grow by these old people themselves. It is very likely that they bought them from some wholesale markets.

Later one time I went to the wholesale market to buy things, and I did find this problem. Some old people went to the wholesale market to buy some scattered vegetables, and then went to some small vegetable markets or around I sell them around the community and treat them as if I grew them myself. In fact, I think this is very unkind.

After this unpleasant grocery shopping experience, I no longer dare to buy groceries with those rural elderly people next to the vegetable market.

Of course, I believe that some elderly people do grow their own vegetables in the vegetable market or around the community, but after this experience of buying vegetables, I no longer dare to buy them casually, because I am afraid of being cheated. As the saying goes, once bitten by a snake, I will be afraid of well ropes for ten years.

Even if I have to buy vegetables from the countryside, I will insist on going to the farmland myself.

In fact, compared to buying food with these rural elderly people, I now prefer to go to the supermarket to buy food. This is mainly based on several considerations.

First, safety.

Nowadays, many large supermarkets have more formal vegetable purchasing channels, so safety is guaranteed. Although the vegetables sold in these supermarkets are not organic vegetables, but vegetables with chemical fertilizers and pesticides, at least they are There are some necessary measures to remove pesticides, etc., so that it will be safer to eat.

Second, don’t be afraid of being cheated.

For those old people selling vegetables next to the vegetable market, they do not have fixed stalls but move around at any time. Even if you buy bad vegetables, you cannot pursue them. It is impossible to call the police to arrest them. Bar.

On the contrary, those supermarkets have fixed business outlets and are registered with the industrial and commercial department, so we are not afraid of them running away. If we buy some poor-quality vegetables, we can also ask them to call for monitoring to investigate, so Don’t be afraid of being cheated. After considering various factors, I would rather go to the supermarket to buy food than just buy food at a stall.
