Found a grocery store in Buffalo that sells a 3 lb bag of "ugly" peppers for $1.99
Stopped in on a trip to see my sister and couldn't believe the produce section had a whole bin for misshapen veggies at less than half price. Has anyone else found stores near them doing this, or is it just a regional thing?
Oh man, hate to burst your bubble but that's not really a "found a hidden gem" thing, it's more of a chain-wide deal. Stores like Wegmans and some others have been selling "misfit" produce for years because shoppers won't buy weird-looking veggies even though they taste the same. If you're near a bigger grocery chain, check their produce section next time, you might see the same bin at home.
