Sales format

Spinach is sold by:

  • package - for frozen Spinach or pre-packed in the vegetables aisles;
  • weight - in the bulk vegetable aisles;

Issues

  • Are some Canned spinachs and Frozen spinachs also (pre-)cooked)?
  • Should Canned spinachs be moved to Prepared spinachs? There are often other ingredients than just Spinach.
  • The Spinach with cream has been moved under Meals, and not under Prepared vegetables as it contains Dairy.
