    When I had covid, I did do Instacart so I could get groceries delivered but I never wanted to get produce through it because no one can pick fruits and vegetables quite like you can.

      I got burned too many times. Often they did substitutes that were anything but. For example, I am diabetic, and ordered diet soda, and often got regular. I ordered kosher hot dogs, got chicken franks. Salted butter when I asked for unsalted, wrong type of rice, and after a few of those, I gave up.

        My wife ordered JustEgg (a mung bean egg alternative) because she’s allergic to eggs and they substituted a carton of eggs. Fortunately I was able to eat them.

      As someone who orders groceries all the time, yes produce isnt great 2 outta 5 times. I get a refund for anything that isnt picked properly. Also like once every couple months my whole order gets delivered to my neighbor, then i just get a full refund after i go and pick them up.
