That is my concern too.
I let my dad take on the task of purchasing lumber for my projector screen for Super Bowl Sunday, and being old he decided it would be more convenient to order online and just roll up in the truck and load it in. The 12' boards curved an inch or more over the length. Because I'm a newb, I just started building the frame without thinking to check that newly purchased materials were acceptable.
I ended up spending half an hour going through every board in the store to get the 2 straightest pieces. I'd say only 10% were acceptable enough to make anything out of, and the rest were garbage.
I'm making a shelf out of the garbage pieces we got from online ordering.
On the plus side, maybe we'll have less food waste since the less desirable food will be evenly distributed to everyone instead of tossed like they do now.
