Grocery Stores - BUSINESS articles in 1990's said "increasing junk foods and non-food items might fail"
Grocery stores didn't used to have all the "un-wholesome" crap on the shelf they do today, like imported asian spicy oils, the nth power of dorito, canned chili with meat, etc. (( Infact the Campbell's canned soup was only several flavors - and campbell's used to have much better soup before competition arrived !!))
preservatives were THOUGHT TO BE a boon in the 1980's , but NOT LONG after - just a few years reall - they were found to preserve intestines and be actually very un-healthy
DESPITE THAT, many "non-tech" investors decided Triskets profits were good and they needed to GET INTO THE GROCERY ISLE.
Grocery stores became a little bigger, Isles flooded with new refridgerators with frozen foods, new isles for junk food, imported "pre-cooked canned foods", etc
"Great Taste without the guit." (even junk food in the 1980's was as perverted as the food they are selling today)
But what did financial articles in the late 1980's early 1990's say about the trend?
They warned it was FALLIBLE. That despite Triskets profits - there wasn't room in the industry for "allot of new players getting in"
DO WE SEE TODAY THE BAD EFFECTS? that the "new junk food" isle is battling to stay in (using foodstamps for God's sake) while the wholesome foods are taking a hit (less variety of fresh vegetables and fresher quality canned foods - and SMALLER CANS higher prices). FROZEN FOODS which, when they are "bought out", aren't being replaced - and when they are - being replace with ever less wholesome "cheaps ass junk frozen food"
HAS BUSINESS TRYING TO GET INTO GROCERY PROFITS NOT ONLY FAILED - BUT ATACKED THE WHOLESOME FOOD MARKET TOO?
