I think I'm about done with these deliver-food-to-home services

I decided to give Door to Door Organics a go since they were offering a $10 off thing for your first order. I received it today and turned right around and cancelled my account so I don't get any more.

I wasn't all that concerned with the "organic"ness of the food since conventional is just fine but I had hoped they'd have a focus on quality. On the "bitty box" order that I placed, my single tiny jalapeno was wrinkly, the roma tomatoes weren't near the ice pack yet were rather frigid so they'd been refrigerated (a SIN!), the cilantro was floppy, the fresh cut mango looks rather underripe and they put my bag of snapea crisps under one of the ice packs and a can of grape leaves so it was somewhat smushed.

Wow, that is disappointing to hear. I've never used one of these services but I would expect decent veggies and such even after shipping. Mike's co-worker was doing the box food thing that is through Publix grocery store and she always complained about the portions being small. She said it was good but not enough of it.

I've had ok luck previously when I've used Stop and Shop's Paypal grocery delivery service when my back acts up. They do a good job of picking out acceptable produce. But since it's only me, it's not worth doing consistently since there's a delivery charge
