At least they mark down their rotting vegetables and stale bread before they try to sell it.

It apparently was a CTV worker/correspondent who noticed it before and then started investigating.

My GF shops there almost every week. Good thing we pay the extra and get our meat from Safeway or Costco (hopefully it's not an issue there).
Some of the beef at Superstore looks so bad, to the point it's turning brownish-green - it's pretty gross how blatant they are about putting crap on the shelves.

Not surprising given that its Superstore, they've always been noted for their horrible cuts of meat and produce. Though personally I've always refused to shop at Superstore cause there are just way too many people there and its just chaos along with their horrible meat and produce.

To save a few extra bucks, I hit up Costco.
Or better yet, don't be lazy, and source out a half decent butcher in your area. They do exsist still, and they offer a MUCH better/healthier meat product than your grocery store. Plus you get to support a small business, and hopefully local farmers  | |

I've bought packaged sandwich meat at SuperStore which when I got home i found was brown when it should have been a pink colour. They were pretty good about it when I took it back but I think'll buy my meat elsewhere

I go to thrifty's to buy anything that is fresh, its hands down the best for meat and veggies on a consistent basis (that I have found without going to a specialty store)
Superstore for bulk items and things that last years

Why would anyone buy meat or seafood from superstore? It's not fresh, going to have major stomach problems afterwards.

I don't get why people even shop at Superstore. Their stores are depressing and ugly, they have very limited selections, and sell mostly shoddy goods.
Grocers like Save-On-Foods and Pricesmart foods offer a much better shopping environment and higher quality foods. Heck, even Walmart is better than Superstore.
Edit: I guess the guys that failed this post love superstore so much that they get offended by the slightest critique.

My gf and I never buy any of their dairy products, especially milk. We always see milk being left out in the open for who knows how long and then it gets put back on the shelf.
