What's behind the price
NYC produce runs through the high-volume houses that feed Hunts Point and the wider metro — California, Florida, Mexico, and Northeast farms when they're in season. That's why a case rate on shishito pepper can shift week to week.
Across the year the trend has been up (down about 11% over the last month). Buying what's in season is still the most reliable way to keep produce cost in check.
Per case or per pound?
Produce is sold by the case, with a per-pound rate shown where it helps you compare. Order on the unit that matches your prep so you're not throwing money out on shrink — perishables don't wait.
Buy firm, bright-green peppers with no browning or soft spots, they bruise and turn fast. Best cooked the same week. Higher-end vegetable line, so order to your blistered-pepper turnover, not in bulk.
