Food doesn't keep forever.

Especially not when they are fresh.

A Penny customer noticed that too and was not enthusiastic. 

Munich – Supermarkets and discounters often advertise their fresh products.

Sometimes customers make mistakes and get a bad product.

This also happened to an Edeka customer who bought rotten mangosteen.

A Penny customer took a closer look at the discounter's fruit and vegetable department.

He found moldy food and posted it on Facebook.

Penny responded to the post in the comments.

Penny customer finds moldy fruit and rotten vegetables

The Penny customer's pictures show moldy nectarines and a rotten pepper.

According to the recordings, the fruit and vegetables are regularly checked by the employees.

A sign draws attention to the fact that the food was last checked at 11:30 a.m.

"We guarantee you an always fresh assortment, thanks to regular checks," says the sign of the discounter.

The Penny customer probably saw it differently and wrote to his post: "Freshness guarantee: the sign is always written on time?"

A Penny customer photographed moldy fruit and rotten vegetables and posted the pictures on Facebook.

Penny: Fresh goods moldy - discounter speaks up

It is not known at what time the customer took the pictures.

Penny reacted to the post.

"Thanks for the hint.

Which market are you referring to?” asked the discounter.

"That's right, you immediately contacted the MA on site, right?" commented a Facebook user.

"It's the same with us, in life nobody checks the fruit and vegetables every 90 minutes," wrote another user.

The Facebook user has not yet responded to the Penny question.

Employees in supermarkets have numerous tasks and have reached their limits, especially since the corona pandemic.

Now 21 people from the retail trade have told what particularly burdens them about their work.

Many customers keep contacting supermarkets and discounters via social media.

Only recently was a customer disgusted by a Kaufland branch because it had problems with its refrigerated shelves and freezers.

He posted pictures showing the extent.

The refrigerated counters "sweated" and the water collected on the chests.
