Burdock and Green onion

I was impressed at a big super market in Japan.

As we brought a burdock and a green onion at a register, The cashier pull out little drawer with cutting board and knife. Surprisingly, they wore plastic gloves really smoothly then cut the long burdock and Green onion in a half instead of folding double at the cash desk.

Here in Australia, maybe they sell those long type of Veges with cut already and it's in a bag.

Well, Japanese product can be like that. but probably people think it's more fresh selling as it is. 
I again found kindness Japanese customer service and their inquiring mind for food.
