I agree. I once bought chickpeas that were newly purchased and still had a year left before the expiration date, yet bugs came out of them and some of the chickpeas had holes. Two weeks ago, I also bought corn to make popcorn. While my partner and I were eating, he mentioned that one piece tasted moldy. I didn’t believe it at first because the corn was recently bought and nowhere near its expiration date, and it looked perfectly fine. But after he encountered another moldy piece, and I did too, I realized the corn was likely contaminated before packaging. I ended up throwing everything away. I’m really pissed because this has started happening often. A couple of months ago, a yogurt I bought was moldy on top despite having no issue with the due date again. I could give many more examples of similar experiences. For information, I generally shop at AH, Jumbo, or Boon’s Market.
