I've actually had one or two Ciao Bella flavors I didn't care that much for.
I can't help it if your tongue is dead gray leather in your head.
Wash: You want a slinky dress? I can buy you a slinky dress. Captain, can I have money for a slinky dress? Jayne: I'll chip in. Zoe: I can hurt you.

Well, now, that's an attractive image.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
I spent an extra 12 bucks on groceries to buy organic strawberries, bananas, blackberries, and tomatoes.
And I'm never going back. I'm budgeting it in. I have tasted good produce for the first time in ages. I'll pay more for fruits and veggies that taste like, like, fruits and veggies. I don't care if they're not the perfect shade of red or yellow or green. I don't care if I have to cut off bruised bits.
Strawberries are sweet. Who knew?

Have you been to the big ass farmer's market on Ivar, Allyson?
You can get organic stuff there.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Oh yeah. Organic strawberries are a gazillion times better than the other kind. And organic tomatoes actually have flavor (who knew?)

I haven't, Perkins. But I shall! It's the one right after Bed Bath & Beyond, right?

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Once you try something that actually tastes like it is supposed to, or tastes like anything really, it is so hard to eat otherwise.
Which might explain why I order things without tomatoes.
On a pendant note, it costs a fortune to get registered or declared or whatever as "organic" so at a farmer's market there are a lot of fruits and veggies grown without the pesticides and such that aren't labeled "Organic." It can be worth asking how things are grown, even without the signage. I have a thing for my farmer's market and the food and flowers I can get there. I end up talking to the people there sometimes even. Voluntarily.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I'm so glad I've never really had good apples or cherries or pears. Sadly, the bananas I buy from Ralph's taste like crap, the oranges are unremarkable, and the mangoes untouchable.

Maybe we should all go to the farmer's market on Sunday.
