Amazon sells you everything, but do you want it handling your peaches?

In the razor-thin profit area of groceries, Amazon.com is slowly expanding its fresh-grocery business to the entire Seattle metropolitan area in the next three months, according to a Bloomberg.com story.

Why Amazon, the biggest online retailer on the planet, would want to become the next Webvan is beyond me.

Amazon already sells groceries online across the country, but it's a big step from selling diapers, cereal, popcorn and other items with a long shelf life to peaches, milk, lettuce and other perishables.
