Amazon's Expired Food Problem

Makes sense. When push comes to shove, the incentives are not aligned for front line employees to prioritise accuracy over productivity KPIs. Thanks for sharing.

If they want to scan fast - put robots, not humans.

That adds up.

It's a high demand job and u guys are running round the clock, this has become our daily routine coz of the consumer world that we live in. We want everything fast and clean at the same time. Its not easy. We r buying on the go...

If Usain Bolt can run 100m in less than 10s, so can you.

Not if ur disabled & homebound, duh.
It's a godsend!

Joan Bowden ...Agreed. Also if said items are not found in your community. But thats hard for people of privilege to comprehend.

Joan Bowden I feel like that more for Amazon fresh or instacart

Dearyvette TN no there is there a very real risk about it expired or contaminated

What tf do we do if we are in lockdown lmao

Any non food item I've gotten from Amazon are still working. I even have good snacks from Amazon.

I order hundreds of dollars of food a year from them and have not had any serious problems. One time a box was crushed and they immediately shipped me another. Stick with the "sold by amazon" labeled products and you won't have any problems.

Same

I only buy from Amazon if I definitely can't find the item in another place at a reasonable price.

Amazon is every where.. from online retail to cloud bussiness.. its hard to ignore..

It’s how badly amazon treats employees.

@@angelgjr1999 it definitely wouldn't surprise me with what I hear on what they pay their employees and how they treat them. Absolutely disgusting for a company that makes as much as Amazon does.

Davis 888 yes I have to drive 10 hours a day and deliver and I get zero breaks. I’ve almost passed out while driving before.

@@angelgjr1999 Exactly... But on the bright side the fact that people are talking about it is a step in the right direction. Hopefully it will allow for change in the way they operate business the more that people know. One can hope

Dude the listings alone are so offensive. They just photoshop (badly!) the item they are selling into off-scale surroundings that don’t show you anything. I mean I can imagine this lamp image cut out and pasted bigger than a couch or on a fake nightstand where a fake lady is smiling all weird. I just don’t get why they have to make these terrible photoshops now, you can’t be bothered to take friggin pictures of the thing? Look at grow lights on Amazon. It’s infuriating.

I've said that about many past dates.

Lol, right! She's like "the brownies tasted like cardboard"... Ummm...how about you go buy eggs, floor and chocolate at the corner store and start baking ma'am.

Joseph Svennson yummy floor, can’t make brownies without it

@@josephsvennson5694 And if the corner store flour is bad she should grow her own wheat.

@Nicolas looking disgusting doesn't mean anything. Something can look disgusting just from being squished, or not being mixed enough.
Other examples include white stuff on chocolate as well as fermented foods.
Much visually appealing food in the supermarket is full of artificial dyes, powders etc.

Yes😤

Amen. I had a guy come find me cause I went 11 minutes between scanning items the day before. I told him I was waiting in line at the bathroom. There were like 5 people in front of me. They told us to stay hydrated so we don't fall out. What do they think happens when we drink a lot of water? It's gonna make us need to use the bathroom often, numbnut. I went off on the poor guy giving me my write up papers to sign stating that I received said write up for going 11 minutes between scanning items. Even after I told him I was waiting in line at the bathroom. Worst job I've ever had

@@katherinesproat1081 And it's worse if you have to do number 2. I've had to skip lunch a few times.

True 😂

As crappy as Walmart is as a corporation they don't have those personal quotas in their large item distribution centers. I'm sure it's not the same at the small item facilities, but not having that kind of direct pressure is nice. As long as we ship out the minimum number of units per day it's fine and that's usually not an issue. Many of the order fillers I work with left Amazon because the working conditions and pay were crap by comparison.

Csnt feel them in a sealed box

Some things arent available in stores

You write during a pandemic, lol. Also, there are disabled people who either cannot drive or it's a very difficult chore for them to do so.

Theres a lot a bad reviews about hello fresh business practices. Bunch of testimony about expire/over price food and almost impossible to get out of subscription. Beware!! Crazy part is they are growing ridiculously fast.

Yep, I once bought the same hair gel I’ve been using for years on amazon. The bottle was so watered down, even tho it was “sealed,” I couldn’t even use it🙁

@@scienceannistyle7070 might not have been watered down. Might've been melted. You heard how their warehouse gets to 120°F.

Fillory I don’t think it was, I’ve used the same product forever, sometimes even after the bottle was sitting in a hot car for days and it was never watery before. The bottle from amazon was so runny I couldn’t even put it into my hands to rub it in, I had to pour it directly on my head.
I’ve also seen tons of reviews of Kenra conditioner from people who had used it before and said the product they got from amazon was definitely not the same product.

@@scienceannistyle7070 I mean it's certainly possible, I just figured since it was sealed it was more likely it just spent weeks or months sitting around at extremely high temps. I know my thick conditioner-like shaving cream turned to complete liquid after my step son let scalding hot water land on it for a min in the shower. 🤷‍♀️

"This knife has expired"

Yeah but ebay sellers are better. They have to take back the items if people dont like them but if they sell them to Amazon they get away with it.

Amazon’s definitely big enough now to hold their sellers accountable & not worry about losing them. Sellers need amazon more then they need them. Simply if the seller gets over a threshold of bad reviews, then give them a warning and if it continues take their license to sell on their site away.

hay woods Amazon is extremely generous to customers and not so much towards sellers. They don’t sell “to” Amazon. They sell on Amazon. If an item doesn’t sell, sellers don’t get paid. Amazon also locks sellers funds until 7 days after the estimated delivery date so that buyers can make sure everything is good before sellers get to withdraw their money. If a customer gets an item one day late, they can get a full refund from Amazon’s generous policy, but that money comes out of the pockets of sellers, who had no control of the shipping process. Returns and refunds cost sellers money even if it’s not their fault. And if problems arise, Amazon customer support is excellent. Amazon seller support usually only offers a copy and paste response that doesn’t quite address the problem you are having. And sellers do get shut down and don’t “get away with it.”
Just some insight for those who are curious.

@@flashbash2 Yeah they make it so easy to return stuff and that means people get "new" products that are damaged cause they kept returning them. And if they shut down some China seller they have like 20 other accounts and you can tell cause they have bad english on most of the sites. Like "Product good very nice yes".

And Sears..com and Wal-Mart.com

I've left plenty of bad reviews though. And everytime i had issues, they'd either refund or replace for me. By far, best online retailer besides MrPorter for me.

Me too. Amazon is known for publishing fake reviews.

Same. A legit, polite, 3 star, critical review of mine was censored although it broke no rules. They wouldn't explain why & I had no appeal course of action available. Horribly scary to think what that means for how faked the reviews on Amazon truly are!

I think there are places where you can leave a review about Amazon or other companies.

Please, I know it's hard to think sometimes but the video literally mentioned it 2 times. These are 3rd party sellers selling on Amazon. What third party seller is going to sell prescription drugs? These are not allowed on Amazon. Obviously, Amazon will be the ones selling it. 🙄

Just fine because they own PillPack and won't be selling third party scripts.

TatTvamAsi They said MANAGE not sell

Good point. I always thought it was weird that Amazon employees will put a barcode label over top of the warnings on otc medications. Seemed like an obvious liability. Still happens. I'm just waiting for the lawsuits.

Yeah they have no business selling drugs if they can't handle food! If they don't get a class action suit against them for bad food when someone does from bad meds like insulin Jeff Bezos will have a big problem on his hands!! Maybe they will finally get knocked down a few inches off the monopoly domination they have on the world.

@@zhenyucai8688 why not use twice the resources for a simple package. Should pump more into the atmosphere nicely. While further taxing efficiency.
Face it, Amazon is less commonly the perfect consumption it wants you to think. It knows what it's doing, whatever that computer they have is. It doesn't seem human.

@@parkerxgps8101 Nothing is perfect, the thing about amazon is that they're improving at a rapid pace. They're actually using less resources buy buying up large warehouses around the country where they ship to in bulks, rather than having to deliver individual packages cross country.

I wouldn't even call that "food".

its hard not to get mad at them, but honestly they are trying their hardest. sellers are just taking advantage of them. its just a platform where you go to buy something, its the sellers fault 100%.

@@wramo8088 I agree. Comparing Target's site to Amazon in this video is like apples and oranges. Amazon has always been just an eCommerce platform. Amazon has a pretty robust seller verifying system but it's still an uphill battle against the thousands of new sellers that hit the site everyday.
And it's like they said in the beginning of this video. Amazon's actual food products sold through AmazonFresh are their only actual guaranteed items. Sold, Fulfilled and distributed by Amazon. Everything else is third party and consumers are beholden to the same risks as any other item on the platform.

@@wramo8088 true I worked at Amazon call center and a lot of customers blame Amazon for bad items and the company looses a lot of money cause Jeff wants us to make customers happy. The first thing they tell you is do everything to make customers happy.

Jesse Ventura negative, they are enabling it by giving them the platform. They are responsible for the credibility of their platform 100%.

​@@datazero7795 just think about it in terms of real life. if you go out and buy from a local producer and he gives you a bad product its his fault. amazon is actually doing more then what is needs to by giving requirements to sellers. business has and always will be like this.

Matcha is technically perishable. Over time, the quality is reduced to the point that it's disgusting. To make matters more complicated, there are so many different grades of matcha and the quality of matcha from China is way lower than the quality of matcha from Japan. Ceremonial grade matcha from Japan is by far the best tasting usually. Once you have had it, you just can't settle for the lower grade junk coming out of China.

Matcha only stays good for 6 months after it has been picked and processed. Pretty much all of the matcha you see at grocery stores and being sold by Amazon is most likely too old to have any benefits. I only buy my matcha from a Japanese company and it's shipped straight from Japan.

Haha I love it

Crazyman1212 sure but it’s not so simple. If you have the choice then yeah. But not everyone has a car or lives in places with good public transport or has access to stores that sell what they want.

Or go with first party products if you don't want to do seller comparisons.

Well coronavirus sooo

*Bad Word* you know how stupid you sound?

If the store isn't local and delivers i think it might be a bad idea to buy food online

Rando Weeb No, no, do you know how stupid YOU sound??

I don’t think it’s wrong to expect edible food from a place that sells food. Times are changing and food WILL be bought online and companies will need to compensate for the errors they make.

They exist out of need though

Sam Yoder they exist out of cheaper labor.

Cheaper labor is what the market requires out of a need to supply items on a larger scale, which would make sense if and only if the market examines that need and provides a clear path forward for growth though, so we can agree that with growth we can expect prices to drop a bit, but demand to increase supply yields exponentially a growth only seen on scales with fly larvae in India, which is exactly why we find ourselves here writing about this disastrous issue. Lol. Am I missing anything?

Quality suffers as a lack of profitability decreases, or can we say we shouldn’t expect diamonds from dung beetles?

I don't like either one!
Just can't trust them!
PERIOD 👍

Disrespectful how? You mean like these KRplus comments? I hope it ain’t that bad! LoL 😂

L E agreed

Maurice Andrews can you tell us your experience?

yaya Bop Just one. Once I ordered some Reeboks. I got sent some dollar store sunglasses and a watch strap (no watch). They said I could keep it and get a refund if I gave a 5 star review.

Yes, Walmart definitely has an advantage over Amazon when it comes to grocery!

Well, I bought some Lays Ranch dip from Walmart and it was 1 year expired. The kind in glass jars.

@@jaymelee23 You definitely can find expired product in stores like Walmart but the difference is that at Walmart you can check expiration before you purchase. Amazon sends expired goods to your door and then you have complain and initiate a return.

@@ApplicoInc -- that's true but it's becoming very common in a lot of stores around here. It sucks because I feel like I need to look at each product before putting into the cart. This really slows down getting in and out of store. Last year, I probably bought at least a dozen products that were expired. Expired orange juice and the ranch dip were the worst. YUCK.

I actually work for amazon at a amazon fresh location and I can tell you that Walmart is also one of the suppliers they use. So
You going to Walmart or shopping on amazon is no different really other than you being able to physically inspect the item yourself

@@TH-uw9py You never got one thing that was shipped bad and broken open? They always mail new things with ripped boxes and put heavy and light things in the same box. Like they send liquid cleaner with other stuff then the cleaner breaks open and gets everything else covered in stuff.

@@greenlawnfarm5827 Perhaps I'm the exception, but I've been ordering nearly all of my groceries (Except for meat and eggs that I still buy from a regular grocery store) from Amazon for a while now and I haven't had a single problem. They always ship the cleaning supplies and toiletries that I order in a box that is separate from my food. I am a huge fan of Amazon.

@Antonio Giuseppe I live out of town about 20 miles away from the closest grocery store. Amazon is just much more convenient. I order online and two days later, my groceries are on my doorstep. It's fantastic.

Applico I agree. To me the best option is that amazon should only deliver food from Whole Foods and ship it the same day. So if Whole Foods don’t sale it then amazon doesn’t ship it.

They should require sellers to add the expiration date of their produce and automatically remove it from the fulfillment center once it has expired.

@@mr.precision5039 Great idea! This could automate most of the process. The fulfillment center could verify the expatriation when receiving new product and from there all you need to do is some moderation and QA to make sure sellers aren't abusing the system.

They do, plus when amazon night while food they must have fired who every ripens they banana cause they’re always green and you have to ripen them and that takes days

@@papito2222 It feels like we are yet to see the final form of Amazon and Whole Foods integration. What you're describing seems like something they could implement in the future. 🤔

because people are hungry same day not 1-2 days later. Just like how AutoParts stores are still thriving.

TheSnowFoxParty Grocery stores can still sell expired food by accident too. It’s happened to me once when I bought chocolate milk & a couple times if you count fruit in a package you can’t open (ex: cherries, blueberries, etc).

That's really good for you since that part can be risky and who knows what bonus part your getting in that area especially now with Corona on the prowl otherwise known as COVID-19 and food and drink is really volatile to handle.

You have probably used Amazon web services AWS. Not directly , but whereby Amazon hosts a website you use, government, healthcare, authority and other online stores. Even computer systems and POS systems in store can use AWS to run the application,
therefor Amazon probably has got at least one dollar from your family directly or indirectly. This company is too big to avoid. They also host a telephone line service for call centres too.

Look at you so proud... dude.. you're supporting the company by buying from Whole Foods.

3rd party vendors will lie and Amazon won't enforce. People are selling stuff they fished out of a dumpster, Amazon don't care.

No because expiry dates is added manually by factories. Some batch of products can be used for two different brands and different expiry dates. I have personally worked in some factories.

@@db-wt8lb Some will, not all will. Amazon won't enforce because they don't have a policy to enforce.
Also, you are poisoning the well; 'people' do not sell stuff they fished out of the dumpster. Again, some do, but without a percentage or stat, your language is implies all people. Which is just not true.
And Amazon cares enough to make a profit; if they want to fix their system 'quickly' this puts a bandaid on it.
So yeah the OP is probably correct. Labor cost is the only issue as efficiency is already amazon's game. So what they spend a few extra hours to make sure food is edible? They don't sell you broke IPhones usually, they want to sell working products.
Edit: Also, your comment has no sources whatsoever. Please fix that. Otherwise, you are basically blowing hot air.

Lol, yeah they meant aseptic!

Well, technically packaging could be infected with a contagion (contain a virus/ bacteria/etc on or in it). Whether they meant that or not is another story; but literally it is a thing.

Aseptic is the correct term. ,thank u

that's not how it works. There has to be demand for it. Also, not everyone has a car for "1 trip".

we are a 3rd party seller, selling grocery products on amazon and for the past 6 years. for the past 3 years we only ship from our own warehouse and no longer use Amazon's warehouse. Before that we used to send to amazon warehouse for them to ship, but they would stick other sellers inventory in our inventory and label it with our sku numbers (so any problem with that product we would be blamed for it). Also they would lose your inventory for months and magically it would show back up a year later for sale to customers. This past december amazon stuck 15 units of some other sellers stuff in our FBA inventory from a shipment we sent in over 3 years ago that they lost. lucky we caught it and had it recalled, they would not reimburse us for it when it clearly wasn't our inventory they lost from 3 years ago.

The problem never was then trying to do their best.
The problem always was that their best isn't good enough and yet they insist to keep doing it.
If my store allowed other people to sell their food, and it had same problem, I assure you: it would be closed very quickly.
"Amazon couldn't get better than this at it" means Amazon should stop doing it.
But it's too good to fail, isn't it? If there was 1000 little stores, and people got food poisoning on one of them, one case would be enough for government to start looking and close store/demand changes in their policy.
You can't do it with monopoly.
That's the problem. Until this monopoly is broken, Amazon don't have any incentive to get better: their already are the best, food poisoning or not, because they illuminated all competition.
