Bought a pound of rainier from Costco today - completely flavorless... last weekend got 2 lb of regular and they were very decent...both were $7 per pack..
overall produce quality has been very inconsistent during covid times everywhere...

But, the quote in your post says $2.99.

We returned some items, in mid March, with no problem. Moldy water bagels be gone!

There is a list out somewhere of which fruits are worth paying more for organic. Everything is more expensive organic. I am sure cherries are worth buying organic, so are strawberries. Bananas are not because they are peeled. Pineapple is also not worth buying organic. Apples you should buy organic. I am sure you can find the list.
But unless they are individually wrapped with a bow, I can't fathom $10 cherries.

Actually I have found that organic bananas have a several-day-longer edible shelf life than conventional bananas, so I always buy them (and bananas are one of the very few things for which I insist on paying up for organic). I am one of those people who cannot stand mushy bananas.

My local boutique market also sells them for $9.99 a pound. 1 or 2.99 a pound at Safeway is my kind of price. I love cherry season. The dude on the corner sells a big bag For $10, but his are kinda the leftovers from the field.

I havent yet seen much on cherries at Safeway overall and I dont like market street Safeway only because there is too much empty commercial retail nearby the shop.
