I eat dragon fruit, kiwis, strawbs, bluebs, and tons of blackberries ("blackbs" is hard to say--but I do). I like to make eggplant parm, and I even bought a head of cabbage once (because I was drunk and thought it was lettuce). And I'm real happy about onions.
Now that my taste buds have evolved (that's what my best friend says), I'm all about broccoli and cauliflower. I eat them just with some ranch as a snack, and have three unopened bags of M&Ms that have been sitting here for a month.
Surprisingly, not a huge fan of bananas. Maybe I'm burnt out on them. I also like those tiny cherry tomatoes.
The one thing I can't get behind lately, though, is the $2 avocados. I was going to make up a batch of guac last week just to see if it was cheaper than buying it already made, and didn't make it past the first ingredient.
It's certainly not cheap. A lot of times when the strawbs or blackbs are about to go out of date I can get them on the cheap, but I haven't seen any discount avocados, yet.
As for what happens to it--I live in a "home for broken people," so I can tell you first hand that when a lot of the produce is starting to go out of date, it often ends up here. I got some barely wilty celery just the other day, and there's almost always a box full of those tiny potatoes and leafy something-or-others.
Is simple: if they carry something people perceive as scarce then those people will assume they have everything. "They have everything at that store, even dragonfruit "
Might depend on the neighborhood. Where I live produce turns over rapidly, yet I've seen a store a few miles away have a lot of produce rot. Stores try to keep a brand that is consistent across locations. Might just be that particular location
Dude, the giant fucking jackfruits... they’s be like $50... never seen one sell ever

I have a feeling you're right about the direction after older people die off. They may become specialty products only found online.
My family buys them periodically, or in the case of cabbages, frequently.
