Now that's a winner! Not. Those are known as scare quotes.

Hint: google for scare quotes:

putting the term “global warming” in scare quotes serves to subtly cast doubt on the reality of such a phenomenon

So. Casting doubt upon freshness? In the food service industry, they call that customer repellent!!
