but that is a very different situation than paying the same price and getting bruised apples where you have to cut off 10-20%.

"bruised" is non-ugly uglified by (mis-) handling/transport/whatever.
Before that there are lots of "ugly" food that never make it to the shop, related previous thread and single point anecdata:
I often buy the bruised ones and cut off the bruised parts before eating. But I make this choice because while I do see a lower value in bruised apples, I don't see the value lower by a factor of 3. I usually cut off just 10-20% of the apple.
If I paid full price for a bruised product I'm right to feel taken advantage of.
