A common pushback against online grocery options is the idea that you want to touch and feel products like produce to make sure they're to your liking. But for someone like me whose busy schedule mirrors that of most other New Yorkers, the times I can get to the grocery store are often when my options are slimmest and the lines are the longest. At 7 p.m. on Tuesday when I need food for the week, the picked-over blueberries are a bit mushier than I'd typically choose to spend $6 on.
In this instance, AmazonFresh impressed me. The overall quality of the produce I got was above what I normally find in person — it was uniformly fresh, and neither bruised, mushy, or too ripe. Having said that, this may not be the case 100% of the time. Since you're not making the final call, there's still no guarantee.
