Inglorious Fruits and Vegetables

Actually one thing I love about the uber-low-cost supermarket I buy my produce at, Superior Grocers in Southern California, is how the fruits and veges look normal, not like Photoshopped and silicone-injected movie stars.

At those overpriced supermarkets like Ralphs or Vons every apple is the size of a baby's head and every one is identical and perfect.
Creepy Frankenfood.
Nature is not perfect.

While this may work in Europe I think most Americans are too prudish to embrace it.

I love those oranges! There's always the most delicious combo of tiny segments and delicate rind to nibble on. Yum!

I'd eat that naughty carrot but I'd not have anything to do w/that Nightmare Orange. That's like..from Hellraiser. If Pinhead had an orange, that would be it. It waits for me under my bed.
