I'm an occasional visitor to Doran's and everything I've purchased has been freshly picked with flavor that far exceeds the grocery store products. If you are fortunate to live within driving distance, you are lucky.
As far as the persong that thinks they were treated unfairly, get a clue!!!!
As soon as you peel the corn open it begins to dry out. Farmers frequentiy run on tight margins and if you open two ears of corn and only buy one you have stole half their profit. Why would you think it is OK to do that to the farmer. If you feel entitled to destroy a farmer's produce by drying out half the corn ... stay away.
What Doran's does let you do is peel the corn and they provide plastic bags for the peeled ears of corn. on the unlikely chance that you peel an ear and find a bad one, show it to them. If you peel an ear and there is nothing wrong with it ... then you should pay for it ... not put it back.
Enjoy Doran's! Thousands of people enjoy Doran's and they understand and respect the farmer's efforts and do not want to hurt the local farmer by damaging their produce and drying out the corn.
Also, make sure to try the watermelons and peaches.
