It's what I call food snobbery, customers and supermarkets who adopt this snobbery attitude piss me off. There was a good series here in the UK a few years ago that looked in to this, for example I forget the type of veg which came from Africa and if it was splatted with mud it was rejected!!!

WTF is it with this kind of thinking, I would gladly buy it and wash it myself.
