Re: Which grocery store has the best quality produce?

Although I shop mostly at Shoprite these days (cheaper) - I think Stop and Shop has better produce.

Shoprite is just okay.. really hit or miss IMO.

Best Yet is almost always ripe.. but seems to go bad very quickly.

I never have great luck at Pathmark and Waldbaum's.. I find a lot of rotting stuff.

I can't wait for the Farmer's Market to open up again!!

IMO Stop & Shop.

Pathmark usually goes bad quickly and Best Yet barely lasted a day.

In my area Bayside, Fairway Douglaston has the best produce, good prices too.
Waldbaum's in Bay Terrace is not too bad, just not that great either. I never buy produce at Key Food, it always looks old and I don't like that it is prepackaged.

I think I have been to every supermarket and I have to say Fairway had the best quality, a little bit pricey though.

I've had the best luck at Stop & Shop. Even there it's not perfect-- I've had a few peppers that were moldy when I cut them open, etc. But overall it's the best quality for the price.

In a perfect world I'd buy all my produce at Whole Foods. But then I'd have no money for anything else Chat Icon

If you live near great neck, shop delight has the best produce for great prices...its actually a kosher supermarket but most of the people who I know that shop there arent kosher at all or even jewish, they just have the best prices around

Re: Which grocery store has the best quality produce?

In Rockland we have a place called Decicco's which always has the best produce (not sure if they have on on LI). Aside from that, Stop n Shop always seems to have good produce.

I do most of my shopping at Shoprite because their prices are better, but their produce is always rotting or goes bad within a few days.

I wanted to add H-Mart. I always forget about them. But they have excellent produce.

I really like the produce from Fresh Direct. I also like Whole Foods too. Neither of those are cheap though!

I tend to get most of my produce from stop and shop. I've found that Costco has very good quality produce for a good price but DH and I usually can't finish their giant packages of fruit or veggies befor it starts to go bad.

Even though I do all my shopping at ShopRite, I think Uncle Giuseppe's has by far the greatest and freshest produce!

They're a little pricey but the produce is always fresh and delicious looking and I always come home with more than what I went in for Chat Icon
