People Took to the Internet to Share Little-Known Facts About Their Jobs That We’d Rather Not Know

Most grocery stores offer pre-cut fruit in their produce department. Shoppers like these options because it’s a fast, easy way to get their daily serving of fruit. Besides, cutting up fruit at home can be such a hassle! However, there’s a secret behind these pre-cut fruit cups that shoppers don’t know. 

Most of the fruit in those pre-cut cups is past the “sell by” date. Repackaging expired fruit is a great way for grocery stores to move their stock off the shelves and avoid food waste. The gross thing is that most employees simply cut off moldy parts of the fruit and use the rest in the fruit cup.
