When the differential was greater, sales resistance developed. But the airborne foods often sold anyway. Examples: airborne grapes sold for 44? a lb. v. 27? for groundshipped. One surprising drawback: "experienced" shoppers, used to the appearance of days-old, rail-shipped products, often refused to buy fresh airborne lettuce because it looked "too green...
