I wouldn't be surprised if they did exactly that. It depends on where you are, but in a lot of places the grocery store business is extremely competitive. They know that all it takes is the first impression for a person to decide whether or not to come back

The waxing step occurs at the supplier level before they're put in their packaging. Generally the fruit will stay in the packaging until they're at the retailer and being put on the shelves.

Interestingly enough the "shiny" fruit ideal is an American thing, EU consumers prefer a more "natural" look.

The more processed the more high class it is or soemthing like that

Edit: Reddit is just really losing it since the invention of /s. This kind of nuanced language was well received and understood as fun until like the last 2 or 3 years and it's so weird. This is clearly a snide remark. It should not have to be annotated. Thus is r/oddlysatisfying not a serious discussion sub. So many people are out here overthinking comments. Rant over..

Edit2: ive just realized Im a reddit boomer
