produce in rants

I bought an avocado Thursday evening when I was out - there are street vendors of produce in various parts of Manhattan. It was RIPE - and ready. I totally forgot about it. I remembered Sunday morning - boy, it was PAST due. The parts that were good, were VERY good, though.

Red flag - if a bag of potatoes is 1/2 price, expect to be cutting out eyes and other blemishes before (and sometimes after) cooking. No, not cutting 1/2 the potato each time, but the 1/2 price cost isn’t quite correct since so much is going into the garbage.
