I mean, I am an urban hipster with a cargo bike... or would be, if I were hip. That part of the comment was self-satire. (Also, I did not say anything about it being "impractical!")

As for your first notion, I don't like it either. Now, to be fair, in addition to those farmers markets and "farmers markets" we do also have regular grocery stores that I can also get to by bike. But still, my comment was about factual reality and my actual experience of how it works in my area, and whether I like it or not doesn't change it.
