supermarket woes

by Mark5019 May 20, 2006 4:32AM PDT

The new supermarket near our house has an automatic mister to keep the produce fresh.

Just before it goes on, you hear the sound of a thunderstorm.

When you approach the milk cases, you hear cows mooing. When you approach the egg case, you hear hens cackle.

So far I have been too afraid to go down the toilet paper aisle.

This might be a money saving tip

The misters, while they keep the produce fresher and crisper, add just a small amount of water weight when they go off. If you are paying by the pound, shake off the excess water on the leafy stuff first.
