interesting article - thanks for passing it along!
ReplyDeleteWell, it was after I was in school, because I remember cutting "bad spots" out of practically every fruit and vegetable we cooked at our house. Apples were lumpy. So what! Pears, peaches, cherries....they all had flaws. They were delicious, because they usually came off the neighbors's trees, if not ours.
