Fruit Ripening
I live close to a really great Ralph's supermarket. Usually, this is actually
a good thing -- it's huge, open 24 hours, and I can walk, though that would
violate some unwritten SoCal rule that you never walk when driving is possible.
Today, however, I found this bag, a free bag—you were supposed to take one. This bag's purpose is to ripen fruit, but it's a normal grocery-thickness bag, nothing special. (You could get the same thing by saying "paper" after someone asks, "Paper or plastic?") But the unique thing about this bag is that it has directions. I couldn't get over how strange this was.
Someone thinks I need directions to put fruit in a bag.
So I figured that it really is my civic duty to preserve the bag's instructions for everyone to see here. The people who brought you this idea: www.eatcaliforniafruit.com.
