Yeah, that's because the food is fresh and less treated than what most Americans are used to. Going bad fast is not necessary a bad thing.
Fresh is not necessarily better, there's nothing wrong with frozen food if you don't mind the texture. And no it's not like Kroger is injecting preservatives in apples.
No, it's because it's old produce that is close to expiring.
The aldi simps here are insane, but another reason why I don't take the masses seriously anymore.
I'm an Aldi simp too!!! Aldi is far superior to Walmart, I never expect my fruits and vegetables to last more than a week and Aldi is good with that. I will never buy produce or meat at Walmart, the things they do to their meat is disgusting. I buy most my non perishables from Walmart, Aldi for other things, and then Costco every couple of weeks. I'm also a Costco simp. In my experience to get the best quality and price you gotta go to multiple places.
Side note, season, time of year changes where produce is the best. Cucumbers in summer at Aldi where I live aren't good.
That's a really low standard to measure against.
