Organic leek

Bio-Lauch

Dear Migros

Why is half of your organic leek missing? I just can't understand why they cut off the top green part of the organic leek and then sell the lower white parts. I don't just see this as pointless, it's a waste of vegetables.

I spoke to a customer about this today and we both decided not to tolerate this, I would say cheekiness on the part of Migros, and bought the organic leeks elsewhere (independent organic store). Obviously there are several people who think like me.

So please, people, sell the leeks whole.

Thank you

Hi HirschiS



Thank you for sharing your thoughts with us. I will pass your words on to the person responsible immediately. It is important for them to know how the offer is received by customers.

I'll get back to you as soon as I know more. Best regards, Silvia

Thank you.

I think that, especially in the organic sector, you should pay more attention to the complete utilization of food (not that you simply remove the leaves from conventional leeks) and avoid wasting food as much as possible.

I have already learned that it is a regional product.

In order to make further clarifications, I would now need to know from you where you buy each time. Then I can contact the cooperative responsible. Thank you for your feedback. Best regards Silvia

Thank you

Hi HirschiS

Great, thank you. I will be happy to initiate further clarifications. You'll hear from me again. Kind regards, Silvia

I have learned that we have two organic leek products in our range. One is the conventional green leek and the other is a pre-cut version, which you have probably seen. Quality assurance for organic leeks is very demanding in summer. Due to unsatisfactory quality, we had to close the organic leek (with green) item for a short time. It will be available again in larger stores from next week. You will then be able to choose which product suits you better. Best regards, Silvia
