Because of COVID-19 fears or maybe just a detestation of grocery shopping, many of us have stopped roaming through the aisles of our neighborhood grocery store. Instead, we’ve been placing online orders for pickup or delivery, often from our local grocery stores via delivery apps.
But sometimes we order from digital grocery stores (think FreshDirect) that never even had aisles in the first place. You simply open an app, select your groceries and wait for them to arrive on your doorstep after they’ve been sorted out in a warehouse. The pandemic and stay-at-home orders created an increased demand for the already growing sector of digital grocery stores, and their popularity is still on the rise. From those that offer premium-brand health food for a monthly fee to those that promise to repurpose oddly shaped or unattractive produce, there seems to be an option for just about every type of shopper.

Durant vs. Irving vs. Harden: Who Is The Wealthiest Brooklyn Nets Star?
KEY POINTS
He is teaming up with Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving
Durant has bigger net worth than Harden and Irving
Kevin Durant, Kyrie Irving and James Harden are all on the Brooklyn Nets roster this season. Who is the wealthiest among them?
Kevin Durant enjoys a slight advantage in money rankings. He has a reported net worth of $170 million. A lot of it comes from lucrative deals with brands such as Nike, Alaska Air Group and Google. In 2020, the sweet-shooting forward earned $35 million from sponsorships alone. Since he was drafted earlier than his two All-Star teammates, this allowed him to develop his skills and show what he can do faster and secure larger NBA contracts.
