Everyone who purchases fresh fruit and veges, Legislation can be implemented to ensure it is shown
When we purchase fresh produce we are assuming that it was picked just recently, however, much of it is picked days, weeks and in some instances months beforehand and is held in storage. If its not organic then it is sprayed to stop it ripening (not just once) and sprayed again (often) to start the ripening process. We have a right to know when "fresh" is fresh and isn't last years harvest. eg apples oranges etc
