There are many online food shopping sites (場(chǎng)所). This is very surprising. Things like CDs, books, and
DVDs sell well online. But it is quite different to sell food online because people like to see food with their
own eyes. It is very important for people to buy fresh fruit and vegetables. Customers like to choose their
food by its colour. They also want to touch and smell it. But some people like to go to the same shop to buy
food, because they think the food there has a very good quality. So if the food is always good, they may also
feel comfortable buying it online.
    Boxes of fruits and vegetables have been delivered (遞送) to homes around Britain for a few years now.
Dried or canned (罐裝的) foods are almost always the same, but things like apples are not. People may want
to choose their own apples so they can take the ones that aren't bruised (碰傷) or the ones that look nice.
Buying dried and canned food online is easier. A person can buy this kind of food on the Internet and then
buy fruits and vegetables at a store or a market.
    Now people can also buy food through supermarket websites. There people can find most of the things
that supermarkets usually sell. Other food websites sell different types of food. Some sell food from one
part of the world such as Asia. Others sell food that is hard to find in supermarkets. There are also websites
that sell sweet foods such as cakes and candies.
     The food is usually delivered by the next day or even on the same day. People still need to be careful,
though. They must check to see if the food is fresh when they get it. It is a good idea for people to find
out how far away the food is being delivered from. It is also a problem if the company does not use
refrigeration (冷藏) when they deliver food that should be kept cold. If traveling long distances in the
summer to deliver the goods, this is important.
