How stale is the food you usually eat? As a rule, I couldn't say I'm often thrilled to eat fresh produce I bought seven days earlier.

Every single day might be a bit much, but if I'm bringing home food for 3 people * 3 days, a bike is absolutely fine.



An apple or onion will last weeks, not days. The only stuff that spoils after 3 days is fresh greens.


Meat tastes considerably better within 48 hours. Milk considerably better within 3-4 days. Eggwhites become runny consistency about 10 days after lay, but the ones you get from the shop are already several days old at best.
