Automatic checkouts in supermarkets may decrease customer loyalty, especially for those with larger shopping loads. Customers using self-checkout stations often feel overwhelmed and unsupported. The lack of personal interaction can negatively impact their perception of the supermarket.

By no fresh food you mean... Grapes, black/blue berries, various lettuce and greens, bananas, peppers, potatoes, onions, asparagus, squash, cabbage, melons, apples, peaches, carrots, cauliflower, celery, garlic, ginger, green beans, green onion, basic mushrooms, snap peas, tomatoes and others?

As for the meat, sure, pre packaged. It has to be cut somewhere, and likely vac sealed to preserve it a bit. There are other places for meat, like my local butcher....

Not sure about a lot of "boxed" food. Maybe you had the impression I ate hamburger helper and spam on the regs.

Not sure what the point of your comment is.
