My guinea pigs would eat like kings! They already eat like lords, but this would be fantastic!

That is so cool

I'm not autistic but this sounds really nice. Wish it was everywhere!

Nice!

Most places in the UK have these too

That's creative!

It looks like it has lots of recipes! That is awesome, way better than throwing it all away!

Love it! Less waste and saving money with bulk shopping

Great idea!

Note to self....when I visit Italy, make sure to learn how to ask to pet the dogs and cats.

This gives a whole new meaning to local food

My local supermarkets do this :)

In the US in some stores kids get free cookies. I know how surprised everyone will be to learn this information

I only worry about the cleanliness of things like apples or other fruits where you may eat the skins, just because you never know who's touched them after wiping their nose or picking their butts.

Yes but it varies round NZ, some do apples and bananas only, some add other seasonal fruit as well.

My mom would always get my son a chicken leg, let him eat while shopping, and then throw the bag away...... But that was just my mom!

I had this at Market Street in Texas, always loved shopping there as a kid

a local store gives them a cookie at the bakery. this is healthier.

Our local super market does this! My kids are begging me to go there. Just for the fruit. I mean, it's nice and it keep the blood sugar levels up = happy children = happy parents. But let's be honest, they do this to keep us longer in the store = 💰🤑 🛍️ 🛒

This is New Zealand and a nice idea for sure. Sadly though grocery costs are ridiculous in NZ!! There is a duopoly (2 supermarket chains) so consumers get an unfair deal at the supermarket checkouts due to systemic competition problems.

My 2yr old Grandson loves this..he always picks a banana and eats it happily as I shop

when I was a kid, butchers would give a free slice of sausage to kids. I like fruits even better!

My grocery store did this for a while until the adults were coming in without the kids and grabbing up the 'free' fruit.

We did that at the store I worked before... had to stop pretty fast because we would find half-eaten fruit everywhere. (note: store didn't want to put more garbage cans because "people won't use them anyway" 🤦)

Coles and Woolworths (puctured)in Australia do this

my supermarket used to do this and they dont anymore

Mine does too.

I wish they had this where I live…

Yay Countdown/Woolworth! Depending on which side of the 'ditch' you're on.

In BC (Canada) Save-on foods offers customers with young children a cookie from the bakery. I like this idea better.

My Publix does it and there is apples,bananas, and oranges

My local co-op does this - it’s so cute to see the kiddos running to pick out an apple when they arrive.

Tesco in the UK do this, pretty sure Asda do also although to be honest the fruit rarely looks appealing.

Tesco in the U.K. do this and Morrisons have the quiet times for autistic / anyone who hates too much noise.

Wish they had that sooner

We had this in our local Kroger for a little bit, not anymore tho

I remember those when I was a kid :D

I work for this company and some guy bagged up two bags of fruit thinking he was going to get them for free, that's not how this works lol

They do that at mine :)

Most supermarkets in Sweden do this. Or you can just take a piece of fruit for them to eat if they don't like what is offered!

Im pretty sure every Woolworths does this

I grew up in Woolworths so this is normal for me

Mine used to do this. Not sure why they stopped.

Tesco do this
