Who cares it's not spelt properly, you know what they mean.
This is a deals site not an English exam .

No, but at the same time it shouldn't be wrong pointing out spelling mistakes, as long as it is done politely. It's not like they're critiquing the author, they're essentially helping to improve their writing - something that is important in the real world. If I make spelling mistakes I'd want people to correct me, we shouldn't be encouraging people not to point them out
EDIT: Just to keep this thread on track, really good deal. Good to see supermarkets starting to sell imperfect fruit and veg which otherwise would be wasted.

Some people on this site really do need to get a life.. It's a website/app for informing people of deals which they believe to be hot. It certainly isn't an English exam and some of you people really need to relax and focus on much more important things in life...

I disagree. For rhetorical questions there is always an implied answer which is analogous to a statement For example the rhetorical question "Can't you do anything right?", the equivalent statement may be "You can't do anything right". In this case the person being impugned is quite clearly able to object to the statement and therefore should be able to object to (= answer) the equivalent rhetorical question.
So in this instance "Who cares?" is equivalent to "No-one cares" and clearly that isn't true. To deny someone the ability to object to either the equivalent statement or the original rhetorical question would be ridiculous and certainly isn't a grammatical mistake.
In other words someone should not be able to avoid someone else objecting to a statement simply by re-casting it as a rhetorical question.

Like the idea of this wonky fruit but should be far cheaper, as it's the runt of the crops. Currently Morrisons have standard strawberries at 300g for £1.00 which works out roughly the same price.

I saw a dent in one of the strawberries. All strawberries go down the hatch the same way.

Think I'll wait another 6/8 weeks and get some in season ones that are not crunchy and taste like cabbage. Thanks anyway.

"Strawberry's"? Have a look at the label.

I might be being excessively cynical here but it seems to me supermarkets are simply repackaging class 2 produce as "wonky" claiming they're doing good things for waste, farmers.
If these don't sell they get thrown away or turned into compost/fertiliser etc. If these weren't repackaged as wonky, they'd be turned into jam, used in yogurt, cakes etc.

On the plus side, cheap strawberries. :laughing:
