People
generally tend to pick out the best-looking fruits and vegetables when shopping
for produce, but Canadian supermarket chain Loblaws is attracting customers
with badly-shaped and faulty produce at the price of 30% lower than
normal-looking ones.
A trial
run of the ugly food line, named "Naturally Imperfect", began with
only apples and tomatoes to choose from. Consumer demand has been so huge that
Loblaws is going to introduce more unsightly vegetables and fruit options like
onions and mushrooms. The line is available at other stores, including Real
Canadian Superstore and Your Independent Grocer.
All the
produce that will be sold through Naturally Imperfect would otherwise have been
used in juices, sauces, or soups, or have not been harvested at all. The
director Dan Branson explained that this program benefited both food producers
who would otherwise have to let abnormal harvest go to waste, and consumers who
could buy fresh produce at low prices. And he was right, given how popular the
line has become.
"It
really went well beyond our expectation," Branson said. "I think it
really spoke to the fact that Canadians are out there really looking for some
options."
Of course, Canadians know that beauty is
more than skin deep, but they also recognize that they can get the same flavor
and nutritional benefits in spite of appearances. The positive response to the
initial offering of apples and potatoes showed the opportunity to expand the
line and offer more options at a greater price to Canadian families.
"If
you grow produce in your backyard, there will be a lot of produce that won't
look as pretty as what you will see in a grocery store," said Branson.
"And nature doesn't grow everything perfectly. I'd like to think if
somebody were to take a No Name Naturally Imperfect apple, put right beside a
No.1 apple, close their eyes and eat them, there would be no difference."
