    It’s about loss prevention. Fresh produce is put nearest the door because it’s the lowest value items. Anything nearest the door is easiest to steal but no one is gonna steal carrots and lettuce. In contrast the most expensive items, typically wines and spirits are always put furthest away from the doors.

    I think putting the fresh produce at the front of supermarkets is partly about trying to encourage shoppers to buy it then buy unhealthy things. But it's also probs because fresh produce doesn't last long on the shelf before going off and so they want it to be in customer's faces right at the start to get them to buy it and keep the levels of wasted products down 🤷‍♂️

I got leg cramp first time ever and wondered why. I'd been focusing so much on my uni work that I genuinely hadn't thought about it and my sight was terrible at the time before my surgeries so I couldn't see myself properly in the mirror haha. I would sit down and have to adjust the belt more and more but never thought about why. At the time once the belt was adjusted the problem was solved and I stopped thinking about it.

    This girl is now 19 years old.

    The produce and floral departments tend to be at the front of a store for a few reasons.
    First, they have a rather short shelf life, so if the "fresh food" looks fresh (and in stock) it gives you a good impression of the store when you enter.
    Second, the entrance of the store is a bottleneck, and the produce department has a variety of storage requirements allowing unrefrigerated crates of food stacked in islands instead of requiring chillers or shelves (and narrow aisles right in front of the entrance).
    Third, the chilled and frozen goods need a lot of electricity to maintain safe temperatures, so placing them right in front of the floor-to-ceiling wall-to-wall glass side of the shop right next to the big automatic glass doors would be a bad idea.
    Fourth is staffing levels and knowledge - other departments might need a few things replenished throughout the day (milk being an obvious example), but the produce department needs people (especially on a Saturday, or the 6 hours you're allowed to open on a Sunday) to continuously remove the cardboard from the empty banana crates and bring out 64 cases of bananas every hour or two, replenish the root vegetables, and be able to help with the okra, mango, starfruit, or physalis on your shopping list, as well as a chunk of time spent on quality control without getting in the way of customers (classifying bruised bananas as Class II, removing browning mushrooms, checking the asparagus is still good, keeping the carrots and parsnips (and flowers) hydrated, checking the citrus for any signs of mould, etc.).
    Fifth, and it can be annoying: the checkouts are perpendicular to the produce department and the produce staff know what the things without barcodes look like so during busy times they can all be called to checkouts. It's been 15 years since I worked in a supermarket but I still know 4011 = loose bananas, 4083 = loose baking potatoes, and 3082 = loose broccoli.
    Sixth: if you don't need any refined/processed foods or non-food items you can probably do your shop just walking the perimeter of the store, because...
    Seventh: the produce department receives pallets of crates and cases every day, and the produce needs to get from the loading bay to the produce storage area and/or chiller efficiently. The beers/wine/sprits department needs a storage area with a locked & security sealed door (and be far enough from the entrance and car park in the unlikely event there's an ethanol explosion), frozen foods needs a big freezer to stick cages in, the counters and chilled goods departments can share a massive chiller to stick their cages/dollies/crates in, but the produce department needs a clear run from the loading bay that can fit a full-sized pallet through (as well as its own plastic and cardboard bailers) and 3/4 (by volume) of the goods go bad if stored at room temperature and a quarter go bad if refrigerated. I remember one Christmas Eve where we had lorries turning up throughout the day (usually the day's deliveries arrived at 04:00), and as well as keeping up with stock levels at two rival supermarkets (IIRC, we were directing customers to Tesco for their turkeys and Tesco were directing their customers to us for potatoes) we were keeping track of what pallets were arriving at which time - without the efficient layout out back for unloading produce deliveries I wouldn't have been able to make a Tannoy announcement around lunchtime "This is a customer announcement: a produce delivery has just arrived and parsnips will be back in stock in 5 minutes. Thank you for your patience."
    The produce department is probably the only department in a store where employees grab a best before date insert from an empty plastic crate and write down a shopping list during opening hours - other departments rely on stock control or their memory. Selling 100 grand (2004 prices) of fruit and veg a day requires quite a lot of "cardboard runs", shopping lists, and bananas (#1 in term of store sales, year after year... quick Googling for recent data... bananas are also the #1 item sold at Walmart and via Uber Eats in 2021).

    Dudes. The fruit and vegetables inside the front door is a proven psychological fact. It looks nice and entices you in, as does the bakery next to it with the aroma of freshly baked bread. They make you feel hungry so you buy more. It's the same on both sides of the pond and everywhere else, even in damn Russia!

      My hypersensitivity to fragrance means the smell of freshly baked bread has always made me want to vomit. Its why when I worked in a supermarket I tended to do afternoon/evening shifts instead of early mornings, and also why I never breathed when unable to avoid walking down the air freshener aisle.

    Of course being fat is taking in more calories than you burn off… the question is why so many people, myself included, do it to themselves?
    Every single over weight person would surely rather not be yet it’s clear by the obesity problems around the world it’s so very difficult to change your habits and behaviours around food. Otherwise all overweight people would just decide to sort it out.
    What is it about one person that enables them to decide to eat less and another persons inability to do so?
    Could it be the same as one persons ability to place a bet on the grand national once a year whilst someone else ends up homeless and broke because they can’t stop gambling? Addiction?
    Why was Ricky himself overweight for years then, once he became famous and successful he managed to eat less and exercise more? Maybe because the happiness he used to derive from eating unhealthy food was no longer needed because he found his whole life was making him happy?
    It’s an interesting subject to me and I think there’s lots more we have to learn about it.
    Also… Gervais is a proper funny guy 😁

    What does not help Americans is that the car is the main transport. Walking seems a punishment, although cities and towns in USA are designed without pavements/sidewalks.
    Watched’ the fattest city in America’ - Houston and rather than walk her kid to school bus stop, the mother drove to bus stop which was 2 mins walk from house.
    They are designed to fail.

    I started putting on a few pounds when I hit my 30's. The solution was to cut down on calories and I slowly lost the extra fat and maintained a healthy bodyweight. It really is that simple but we keep telling people it's not their fault and so they continue stuffing their faces and feeling sorry for themselves, believing they are victims.

      I am talking sense. In fact I'll make it simple for you. Imagine we have an obese person and we lock them in a room and feed them 2000 calories a day. Do you think they would lose weight?
      They would because it's a simple energy in and energy out equation. If they maintained or gained weight then we would have to literally rewrite every physics textbook and investigate them as some sort of new over unity energy generator.
      The reason people don't lose weight is because they are either lazy or greedy.

    Ricky can be pretty stupid sometimes. The problem is that he is oversimplifying how this with body weight works. Just like he describes with gay people, that this is something you just discover about yourself, something similar is true about hunger. The feeling of hunger is controlled by body chemistry and hormones. The calibration of this is different from person to person. Some people have so little feeling of hunger that they have to remind themselves to eat, while others experience almost constant feeling of hunger. This is not something you choose, this is how your body makes you feel, biologically. Somewhat similar to being gay. Everybody knows how uncomfortable it is to go around and feel hungry, so demanding that some people should be ashamed of themselves if they don't accept being uncomfortable is very stupid, and show how oversimlification sometimes lead to cruel attitudes. When that is said, it is also possible to get fat by eating the wrong things, like he points out. For a lot of fat people this is the problem, in which case his critique is ok. If you don't have the disipline to eat what is healthy for you, then you have to blame yourself for health problems, but if you eat healthy and is still fat, then it is your body that is programmed to that weight. With all the complex variety about body weight you will rarely know why some people are fat, so this "open season" on bashing fat people is just low moral, and bad behavior. We don''t do this for any other health issue in society. We don't even jusitfy bashing people for drinking alcohol, which is very bad for you in any amount. The focus has to be on being healthy, not a spesific body weight. Anybody who knows anything about the science around this, know this, and that is why Ricky here sounds kind of stupid. Some points are reasonable, but the main impression is stupid.

      Like Ricky, I am an advocate of freedom of speech. I disagree that he is uninformed. He knows exactly what he is saying and therefore knows the kick-back he'll receive. It opens doors; provokes discourse and makes people think. We should not shut off conversation on any 'controversial' subject because people will simply retreat down their little rabbit hole and find plenty who will support their narrow-minded views. By opening up the conversation you can continue to argue your view point. Okay, you'll find hate but you'll also find much support, plus you have the opportunity to 'educate' the uninformed.
      I am convinced Ricky is not 'anti-trans' - what he does is hold up a mirror to our prejudices. He makes people think by ridiculing trans phobias (and he does similar things with other extremist views such as religious and far right viewpoints).
      Just because he doesn't stand up and say 'x and y' are totally wrong, doesn't mean he is in any way supporting those views. He is simply using the medium of comedy to appeal to a wide audience - most of which have the nous to understand what he is getting at!
