Years ago, I was part of a growers' coop, and we were interviewing for a new sales manager. The interviewing committee told the rest of us that one candidate said that he had been produce manager at a city grocery store; and, when a load of wormy sweet corn came in, he put up a big sign, "Make sure you get an ear with a worm in it! The worms know which ones are sweetest!" and the corn supposedly sold out in short order. I always wondered what happened the next week or month when the corn they had for sale wasn't wormy. -- Rivka; Finger Lakes NY, Zone 6A now I think Fresh-market organic produce, small scale |
