So I buy some fruit salad from Schooner's Market, get it back to my shop and open it up. Not only are the banana slices sporting banana peels, the
strawberries still have greenery sprouting from their tops. The grapes look unwashed and the melon is wilting badly. What's wrong with this picture?

Who in their right mind slices up all those bananas with the peels still intact? A braindead idiot?

maybe what you bought was meant to be iguana food...

Maybe they thought the peels would keep the banana slices from turning brown?

I'm betting on the iguana food theory...

I'm betting on the manager was out to lunch theory...

Yes, but the salad's creator was gone for the day. No manager on duty.

If I was a sleaze ball running a convenience store, I would cut up all the old, going bad fruit and meat in little pieces. Then sell it in small packages to
the folks in a rush. Probably just what ya got bro, rot cut out but not the decay. Buy full cuts and avoid the RECUT practice from small stores. Happens allot
every where.

Only if one goes for high quality and prices that bear it. Customers will pay the price, but you have to back it with quality product and service.

I just cant get over the fact that they expect you to pick off the little bannana peels all around each slice.
Who does that?????????? It's almost as bad as leaving the tails on shrimp in a shrimp marinara dish. That's just bananas! |
