Yeah that's what I thought when I first saw presliced mushrooms in the produce section, who on earth would need to buy presliced mushrooms?

Apparently now it's outselling regular ones in some stores. Same with pre sliced carrots, pre cubed potatoes, pre cut lettuce, and even presliced apples. It's like product for people who don't have knives or something.

It's not something I understand, but I always see people putting the bags of pre cut stuff into their carts (sometimes called stir fry or some other name). I'm sure it's the quick cooking shows that started that craze, and everybody said if so and so uses presliced product, It's OK for me.
