Lol", ">\n\nPlaces try it from time to time, but it rarely works out unless like Subway and McDonalds they have those processed, preserved apple slices in bags - which still don't sell well, but at least they don't draw flies and increase waste even further.\nI mean my local gas station is 14 miles from the closest grocery store and they used to have bannanas, and if they looked right I'd buy one most times I was in. This was a two day window on the bannanas top, and I think one other person also sometimes bought one.", ">\n\nIf you’re not loading your sandwich up with a ton of veggies then you’re better off making a sandwich at home.\nAnd if you are loading your sandwich up with a ton of veggies then the fruit will make your meal less healthy.", ">\n\nNGL, on a calorie per-calorie basis, there probably wouldn't be much difference between the calories in a side of chips and a side of fruit I would imagine.", ">\n\nthey do?", ">\n\nFruit is expensive and has a shorter shelf life than a bag of chips", ">\n\nIf the fruit is not garbage, I'm a fan of this.\nIf the fruit is garbage, I'll take another pile of sodium instead.", ">\n\nFeel free to make your own sandwich shop that does that", ">\n\nThe purpose of food industry is to make profit, make customer addicted to their products, make their customer's health deteriorate since they're colluding with health industry.

I 100% agree with it.", ">\n\nThey dont do that in your place? Shame", ">\n\nOr, they can serve people what they want.", ">\n\nThat is a whole other ball of wax.

No sides. They are all just saturated fats that give you cancer, and the drinks are all just sugars and carcinogens that give you cancer.", ">\n\nAmerica was built on innovation ... by innovators.\nGo innovate, don't expect someone else to do it for you.\nAlso, let us know how much fruit you had to throw away because the fat slobs wanted a cookie.", ">\n\nAgreed, but I think it'd cost the store more money to have fresh fruit and I doubt they'd do that.", ">\n\nThey should serve whatever they think their customers want, if you don't like what they offer you should take your business elsewhere.", ">\n\nWhat about a small snack pack of peaches or pears? Or pineapple cubes. They can be pretty good.", ">\n\nAmerican food chains are poison. Don't eat them and you'll be healthier than the majority of Americans.", ">\n\nTo me, good deli sides are potato salad or maybe a soup.", ">\n\nIf that's the only place you've ever eaten a sandwich then you actually haven't had a good sandwich yet", ">\n\nThey do?

I'd rather have a lemonade, sandwich, and a cup of strawberries rather than some chips or a stale a++ chocolate chip cookie. \nThe only reason I believe they don't do this is because of the cost of the fresh produce and the durability of it (fresh fruit typically can only be kept for 3 days before being tossed).", ">\n\nJust dont eat a side, the sandwich is already like 600 calories", ">\n\nJust not getting a side is the solution here.", ">\n\nFruit isn't cheap, and spoils way faster.", ">\n\nI don’t want to have to pay more for my sandwich because we have to absorb the cost of unused and/or rotten perishables", ">\n\nYou can feel free to open a business that does. Shops do a mix of what they want to do and what the market seems to want.", ">\n\nIt’s not coat effective and some regions you can’t get that stuff as easily.

Personally for health reasons no side is best", ">\n\nToo expensive..junk food is cheaper in bulk and shelf stable", ">\n\nThis is brilliant for people who like cured meats (and who doesn't like ham?), because those go incredibly well with fruit.
