So, the news had a story about certain lemons and limes being contaminated. They mentioned the supplier who I promptly forgot what they said. I went to check the bag of lemons and limes I bought a few days ago from Lidl, and it said they came from Amazon Produce!! What? Now they are supplying grocery stores? I didn't know that. Did you?

I had no idea that they were supplying grocery stores, but I did know that Amazon had it's own fresh foods thing going on. I just didn't realize it had reached the Eastern seaboard.

@ScribbledAdNauseum Maybe if I go to Richmond tomorrow I will bop into the one in Short Pump. I just haven't been in one for a few years. I like their vegan cookies.

@snowy22315 I think I'd heard something about that a few years ago, yeah.

They seem to sell almost everything. But still we must know where they bought it from.

Yep, I have no idea. They are on the small side, but I think the whole bag was like 3.99. They were probably seconds or something..

Right, well as far as I knew they sold to individuals and maybe small businesses. I didn't know they were selling to grocery stores too.

Looks like they are already covering everything. Well, not yet around here though.

My son said you can't order from them in his part of Brazil, but maybe other places.
