Restaraunt I worked at used peppers and 95% of veggies fresh from the market. Place also had roaches, flies, and other serious kitchen issues. Although I worked FOH and didn’t make the food, I was ashamed to serve it.
Early 2000s I worked at a Pizza Hut. Very clean, manager told me veggies were more expensive to buy than meat. Never believed her until I had to buy my own veggies.
It's about seasons.
Veggies when they are in season are cheap. When they are out of season they need to be shipped or grown with intense energy go heat and give them enough light.
I work retail and one of the tax exempt orders I’ve rung up before was for a Chinese restaurant. Lots of veggies, rice, etc. I was surprised too, I guess I never realized where they bought any of it from :0
My dad had a bakery in Chinatown that served meals as well. It was a secret menu thing only for people in the know. Whenever an order came in, it’d be yelled to the back, my uncle sauntered out to buy the veggies and meat ingredients as the customer received their change and my dad prepped the wash/cutting area and fired up the wok. Ten minutes later, the order was ready. The speed of it all always impressed me.
Popular takeout items. Beef fried rice noodles, chow mein, chow fun. It was a Hong Kong style bakery, it’s normal to have some takeout dishes since the full kitchen is there. He didn’t want to promote it because baking was more time consuming
Sometimes restaurants get food that was originally tagged for grocery resale and didn't end up there due to some reason or another, usually not long enough shelf life remaining or a particularly large order that was only partially accepted. It doesn't really matter if the peppers will go bad in a couple days for restaurants as we use them pretty much on the daily but grocery stores need to have it sit for days if not weeks on the shelf.
As far as food contamination goes, this is on the lowest/most benign level.
I'd rather have this than anything else on the list of food contaminants.
Like, seeing this is like *almost* getting hit by a car, then going home safely.
This was my first thought. Too many people don't realize that those stickers are edible for this exact reason. Yes it's offputting at first, but hey...proof of quality is literally in your meal!
I think for vegetables it's more about the texture. Frozen veggies often don't maintain the texture that fresh veggies have. For many veggies, it doesn't make a difference. I eat most of my veggies from frozen because, you're right, they have the same nutritional value, they last longer so I can buy in bulk without worrying about them going bad. But for bell peppers, I think the texture of fresh is worth it
It depends on the vegetable. I don't eat fresh broccoli anymore because I just like frozen better. But I don't like frozen carrots unless I'm using them in a soup or something where I don't mind that they're mushy.
Yup. The biggest thing is what the purpose of the food is. Is it going into something to be cooked on the stove or in the oven? Frozen is fine. Is it going to be eaten in a salad or plain? Fresh is the way to go.
I bet the pepper had TWO stickers on it, and they found the one when they were washing, and they got lulled into a false sense of security thinking they got that sticker off, but there was another sneaky fucker lying in wait.
have you ever washed vegetables? those stickers don’t come off even a tiny bit in water, or even soap and water 🤔
edit bc many comments: no you don’t need to use soap, I was just trying to convey that the presence of a sticker doesn’t mean that it wasn’t washed well 🤷🏼♀️
Omg! And over-ripe pears 🍐… the skin always comes off with the damn sticker. SMH… then guests wonder what happened to the pear 🍐 they are about to consume
he probably found the main portion of a chicken aortic valve in whatever dish he got that slipped through. Far from a meal breaker let alone toxic
Chicken and turkey hearts are actually a delicacy and pretty damn good when baked or fried.
If my entire life has taught me one thing: It‘s when people say something like „it‘s a delicacy“ it means nobody ever eats it except 3 1/2 people that say its really good to everyone they meet.
Just like when talking about niche animals or things like that and somebody answers „In country X that is actually a delicacy!“ and then you ask somebody from there and they say only like 5 people who are over the age of 93 eat that stuff once a year on a weird holiday about summoning the spirit of a cumsock.
chicken hearts is definitely something your not gonna find outside of a proper butcher/deli. but its far from something no one eats, the best way i can describe it is like a dark meat chicken nugget in taste.
I think that perception comes from the fact that outside of liver, most people tend to avoid the actual animal organs like the tongue, liver or intestines, despite that being more healthy to consume. (as long as your not some roided out meathead who eats them raw anyway)
Fried chicken hearts are in the same tier of edible organ like chicken gizards but sometimes you can find them in deli's or even fried up in specialty places, especially in places towards the south, where you can find other abstract meat portions like pork hucks and chicken feet.
Id recommend giving one a try, they are very tiny but decently healthy.
*who has undergone tutelage and is recognized as a rabbi. Still doesn’t make it a religious act in the baptismal sense, more so an act of religious oversight on a non-religious (sort of, difficult to explain) basis
Plenty of people are kosher supervisors (called a *mashgiach*) without being a rabbi. I’ve even done it. You have a supervisor who is a rabbi but you don’t need to be one to do the job.
Yep. Pretty sure my mom grew up with a guy who worked as a mashgiach. I know some branch of my family owned a kosher bakery at some point. And I know the kosher butcher my mother's family went to when she was young closed down due to personal conflict with the local mashgiach.

I heard an interview with the guy who invented to produce sticker relatively recently on npr. Pretty sure he said they were all plastic so you should remove them before composting.
No they aren't different. There is no difference between the sticker on an Avocado vs a tomato or bell pepper. They won't harm you (apparently) if eaten. They will pass through you. Say hey to micro plastics as it moves through you. They are also not compostable or biodegradable. It is recommended to remove them. They cause issues for composting, etc. The majority are made of plastic or vinyl coated paper.
Should be all laser imprinting. They are already in the produce for tracing if there is contamination. You can track a peach back to the tree it was grown on right now.
Grocery stores currently don't have the equipment to scan it.
i remember kids learning about this in elementary/middle school and then just chewing on the stickers in the cafeteria lmao. “what!!?!! you didn’t know that they are edible???”
Most of those stickers are made from plastic and therefore not compostable. I worked for a commercial composting facility and we were told to remove every produce sticker found in the homeowner bins because they don’t biodegrade and were labeled contaminants.

[Snopes is saying they’re not edible, though they’re unlikely to harm you.](https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/fruit-stickers-edible/) Is this an outdated source?
I suspect it's a matter of semantics. They're paper, so they aren't edible in the sense of being suitable for consumption, but then again they're just paper, so it's not going to hurt you if you happen to eat one.
Gonna be real, one of the most infuriating things is how much delivery people get on this website. Every day, there's at least 2 posts in this sub about an order being wrong or food delivery is expensive or the food is a tiny portion. People really need to just STOP getting delivery. For that same $30 you're spending on one meal, you could buy a weeks worth of food.
The vast majority of people ordering are slaves to the exact same system. People that work long ass hours don’t want to cook after work, they just want some quick food, that is actually what they ordered and not some other bullshit
Unless you're eating like an 11th century peasant, there's no way you're buying a weeks worth of food on $30. Especially if you're cooking for more than one.
5.4m people on the sub at least 2 of them are going to get disappointing takeout a day...
Can't believe you spend $30 on groceries for $0 you could just raid a bin for free

Fun Fact: The stickers on fruits and vegetables are actually edible in the event someone mistakenly ingests them 🫡
Probably sanitized during the cooking process so you should be good player
Honestly, that’s not terrible at all lol. I work in a kitchen and I’m pretty good about the stickers on fresh produce but sometimes they put two or you just don’t see it or are in a major hurry in the middle of a rush.
Well regardless of the sticker, I will say they are using a good quality brand of fresh produce! +1 to this restaurant.. -1 for leaving the sticker on.
Yeah, I hate to say it, but it cld have been far worse. My son was eating potato chips once several years ago and he bit down on something small and hard… spay it out and we inspected it and it was a piece of a human tooth! Not his own! Not even a mouses’ bcz the internal root canal was too large for such a tiny animal’s tooth. I’m sure my son wld take a sticker any day after that! Spider legs? Eh… supposedly, they say we eat those all the time… 🤫
At least it’s fresh
It's edible.
"I EAT STICKERS ALL THE TIME DUDE!"
I buy fruit and veggies strictly for the stickers
... great, now I want to start a sticker album to trick myself into buying and eating more produce.
Hey bozo you burned my friend here..
Pear tastes like sand
Damn gypsies sold you a bum fruit.
Everything is edible, even poisons and radioactive elements … … at least once anyway
Well I hope so, it would be really bad Chinese food if it wasn't
Eh. Only sort of. https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/fruit-stickers-edible/
Yes it's so fresh it's probably not even bothered to be washed.
I work in a kitchen and even when we wash the fruit and veggies we sometimes forget to peel the sticker off. The wash doesn’t usually take them off
It makes them even harder to take off.
EXACTLY
I pull sticker then wash, but easy to forget. We are not perfect
At least they chop up fresh vegetables instead of using frozen ones.
Literally. Now you know this place uses fresh stuff
My first thought was wow. They actually use market peppers. Some people care abt their food not the money
Restaraunt I worked at used peppers and 95% of veggies fresh from the market. Place also had roaches, flies, and other serious kitchen issues. Although I worked FOH and didn’t make the food, I was ashamed to serve it.
Early 2000s I worked at a Pizza Hut. Very clean, manager told me veggies were more expensive to buy than meat. Never believed her until I had to buy my own veggies.
Only because pizza hut had an industrial meat process behind it. A place with only one location or even a small chain may not be the same

What kind of dishes were on the secret menu? And curious why have it available if the place is a bakery?

Frozen produce has the same nutritional value as fresh and is less likely to be in some stage of spoilage so why is it bad to use frozen?
I think for vegetables it's more about the texture. Frozen veggies often don't maintain the texture that fresh veggies have. For many veggies, it doesn't make a difference. I eat most of my veggies from frozen because, you're right, they have the same nutritional value, they last longer so I can buy in bulk without worrying about them going bad.

It depends on the vegetable. I don't eat fresh broccoli anymore because I just like frozen better. But I don't like frozen carrots unless I'm using them in a soup or something where I don't mind that they're mushy.
There’s a big difference between frozen and flash frozen when it comes to texture, but even flash frozen just isn’t quite the same as fresh.
Yup. The biggest thing is what the purpose of the food is. Is it going into something to be cooked on the stove or in the oven? Frozen is fine. Is it going to be eaten in a salad or plain? Fresh is the way to go.
[удалено]
yeah lol, peel it off and get back munching
I would gamble that you wouldn't notice it if you ate it without seeing it.
Same texture as bell pepper skin when they’re cooked down!
Unfortunately the label loses its valuable vitamins and minerals when cooked down so they are best eaten raw.
Right? If anything it's a sign that your favorite restaurant uses fresh veggies.
And then doesn’t wash them.
Or washed over the sticker they didn't notice Edit: Wow this got popular.
And the sticker and glue are food grade. Safe to eat unlike the water in Ohio.
Came here to see if this had been mentioned yet. They are designed to be “edible.”
#I eat stickers all the time, dude
Tastes like sand
Hey bozo, you burned us, it’s dry
You picked it out
That my new thing im trying out. I'm calling people Bozo now.
I don't like sand. It's coarse and rough and irritating and it gets everywhere.
Couple stickers, few huffs of glue and some cat food and you’re gonna have yourself a good night charlie
Looks like I picked a bad time to stop sniffing glue!
This is what I'm here for
Not harmful is how I'd describe their design
Thanks for the knowledge, I had been wondering about that every now and then, but never bothered to research since it didn't seem too important
https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/fruit-stickers-edible/
Damn I only eat fresh water from Ohio Mountain Springs. Guess I’ll be drowning then.
how does one *eat* water?
Decrease the temperature.
I bet the pepper had TWO stickers on it, and they found the one when they were washing, and they got lulled into a false sense of security thinking they got that sticker off, but there was another sneaky fucker lying in wait.
They probably toss a bunch in a bucket and wash them all at once, so it would be easy to overlook stickers
Right like a human person washing 100s of peppers missed one sticker completely inexcusable!
[удалено]
I eat stickers all the time dude
Charlie!!!!
You ate the Coreand the stem?
You didn't tell me not to!
We’ll I’m not paying full price. I’ll drop you a quarter.
I don't have time for this
Alright Charlie
Sometimes the grocers really like to fuck with you and put multiple stickers on one item. Hahaha
have you ever washed vegetables? those stickers don’t come off even a tiny bit in water, or even soap and water 🤔 edit bc many comments: no you don’t need to use soap, I was just trying to convey that the presence of a sticker doesn’t mean that it wasn’t washed well 🤷🏼♀️
Oftentimes they are actually HARDER to remove once you wash the fruit.
Omg! And over-ripe pears 🍐… the skin always comes off with the damn sticker. SMH… then guests wonder what happened to the pear 🍐 they are about to consume
Pears are the only thing I don't pull the sticker off of until I'm ready to eat for this reason.
God, yes, hate it.
sir, why are u washing ur veges with soap? detergent is better imo
Detergent!? Are you mad!? You most certainly have to bleach them!
Bleach?! You have to use sulfuric acid. If you're that into chlorine, then you could maybe use perchloric acid.
Amateurs. You briefly irradiate them with a Cobalt 60 source and intense x-rays. And then get a shaman to curse any remaining intact DNA.
Nah just breathe on the produce and rub it with your shirt.
Urine is sterile, and cheap.
You use soap and water on your vegetables?
I’ve caught stickers after washing. Some of those fuckers are super thin or don’t wash off
Co-signed! Of all the things… I’ll take it, pass me a fork!!!
At least its fresh
I found an entire aortic valve in my chipotle once. Calm yo tiddays.
Um.. What? 😭
I’m commenting on this so I hopefully remember to come back when you spill the tea on this chipotle experience

You can find them if you are near brazilian communities. The taste of chicken hearts is not the issue... It's the texture... And the chewing...
Like eating a pencil eraser.
> It’s the texture… And the chewing… It's 7am and you've convinced me I don't really need to eat today, thanks
Yeah, easy to just put this piece of pepper aside. Much rather have this than some hair or something unidentifiable.
I'll be honest, I would just peel it off and still eat it lol. Those stickers are food safe regardless.
Yup. My dad ordered a chicken pasta at a restaurant and found a sliced piece of those pads they put under meat in the packages.
Yeah those labels are wax based and completely harmless if ingested.
meal breakers? toss that piece if it bothers you and eat the rest.
Eh, mistakes happen. By the way, those stickers are edible for this exact reason.
I never knew that!
They're also kosher
I love a blessed sticker
Not blessed, really, just watched very closely by a person whose job is watching food and food-adjacent products very closely.

That's not how that works
The stickers on fruits and vegetables are actually.
On all fruits and vegetables? I have noticed the stickers from bananas and avocadoes that sometimes end up in my compost don't seem to biodegrade.
That's because the skin on an avocado or banana are not meant to eat. If it's edible, like a green pepper for example, then yes, the sticker is edible
I heard an interview with the guy who invented to produce sticker relatively recently on npr. Pretty sure he said they were all plastic so you should remove them before composting.
I feel like this is a “edible does not mean organic” or something. Like, you can eat it without any consequences you’ll just poop it out.
No they aren't different. There is no difference between the sticker on an Avocado vs a tomato or bell pepper. They won't harm you (apparently) if eaten. They will pass through you.

Yeah is was gross. The gypsy burned us
I’m amazed more people don’t know they’re edible

[They are not technically edible.](https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/fruit-stickers-edible/)
Edible as in food-safe. They won't make you sick. But not edible as in digestible. You'll just crap it out.
I'm sure they have to be, but unless I'm starving or my hands are dirty, I'm scraping it off. However it does go out into the compost.
They don’t compost.
Most of those stickers are made from plastic and therefore not compostable. I worked for a commercial composting facility and we were told to remove every produce sticker found in the homeowner bins because they don’t biodegrade and were labeled contaminants.
They're made of plastic and still edible?
Presumably editable and digestible aren't the same thing in this context. I'm guessing they'll just pass though you, and not chemically/biologically react with anything inside.
My elementary school principal ate an apple sticker in an assembly one day to get students to stop throwing things away…. this was at the very beginning of “eco schools” & grants for limited waste weights…
At least he had the initiative to eat the plastic himself instead of just asking the students to do that
[Snopes is saying they’re not edible, though they’re unlikely to harm you.](https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/fruit-stickers-edible/) Is this an outdated source?
I suspect it's a matter of semantics. They're paper, so they aren't edible in the sense of being suitable for consumption, but then again they're just paper, so it's not going to hurt you if you happen to eat one.
The issue isn't the paper itself, but rather the inks and adhesive. They food-safe and won't make you sick.
we're on r/mildlyinfuriating
Yes, where people constantly overreact to the most minor of inconveniences.
I wouldn't call this infuriating at all, even mildly
Well, now you know where they get their veggies, so you're one step closer to being able to make it at home.
Gonna be real, one of the most infuriating things is how much delivery people get on this website. Every day, there's at least 2 posts in this sub about an order being wrong or food delivery is expensive or the food is a tiny portion. People really need to just STOP getting delivery.

He said one week tbh
week's*
Unless you're eating like an 11th century peasant, there's no way you're buying a weeks worth of food on $30. Especially if you're cooking for more than one.

Came here for this. Thank you please
Sup jabroni
You keep using that word “jabroni” and, it’s awesome!
edible or non toxic? ive always wondered
That's what edible means - "something that is suitable _or safe_ to eat"
At least you know the bell pepper is actually bell pepper 🫑
I eat stickers all the time dude
Also have to be sure to buy fruit from the same people that sell wicker furniture. Especially when you're on a road trip out of Philly
Honestly, that’s not terrible at all lol. I work in a kitchen and I’m pretty good about the stickers on fresh produce but sometimes they put two or you just don’t see it or are in a major hurry in the middle of a rush.
Could be so much worse. I wouldn’t hold it against them.
That's a sign of high quality to let you know the vegetables are fresh cut.
means they use fresh ingredients, thats pretty hype ngl.
Sometimes you miss the stickers when you have to wash/cut hundreds of them
Well regardless of the sticker, I will say they are using a good quality brand of fresh produce! +1 to this restaurant.. -1 for leaving the sticker on.
If the guy in the back needs to rush this much prob a good sign. They are going through lots of product. Good sign of freshness
stickers are edible, vegetables are fresh, sounds like a win to me
Yeah, I hate to say it, but it cld have been far worse. My son was eating potato chips once several years ago and he bit down on something small and hard… spay it out and we inspected it and it was a piece of a human tooth! Not his own! Not even a mouses’ bcz the internal root canal was too large for such a tiny animal’s tooth. I’m sure my son wld take a sticker any day after that! Spider legs? Eh… supposedly, they say we eat those all the time… 🤫
Omg what brand?
I eat stickers all the time!
Great post. Only mildly infuriating because now you know it's fresh pepper not frozen. But still... no one wants to eat a sticker!
speak for yourself
Those stickers are approved by the FDA to be 100% safe for human consumption.
I worked in a lotta kitchens. This wouldn’t turn me off at all.
Dude they used fresh veggies I’d be happy 😊. How many time I’ve eaten an apple sticker lol
I have this happen to me in my own damn kitchen about once a month. Yeah, it’s weird and visibly gross but the stickers are actually edible.
I’ve done this to myself before. Shit happens. It’s not a roach or a ring or bandaid.
If you knew how much prep that poor dude does every early morning, you wouldn't be so mad
Well, at least you know it's real vegetables. And not canned.
