Greenmarket produce scans

Produce scan by ranjit

…Every Saturday, if I can, I go to my local Greenmarket (at Grand Army Plaza), buy some goodies, take them home, and scan them.

 I've been doing it since 2000 or so, though this set only contains more recent ones…

The disappointment of the goat

Roasted_goat …In the summer of 2000, my band headlined an outdoor pig roast in the woods of Maine. A hundred people, a warm night, an excess of loud music and cold booze all leading up to the main event: the unveiling of the pig. Buried in a pit of coals since early that afternoon, it was scheduled to rise out of the ground like a delicious zombie around ten PM. But the pig took its time, arriving four beer-soaked hours late to meet a frenzied crowd that became piranhas in a David Attenborough special at the sight of it. We surrounded it, tearing at it with bare hands, stuffing pig flesh into our mouths with one claw while reaching for more with the other. It was a vision of man reduced to his basest state: grunting, eating, swallowing, slobbering, wiping his hands on his shirt and going back for more

Apple’s apples

Apple_logo_apples I have known for years that the iPhone was extremely popular in Japan, especially with the number of requests I got from friends asking me to send them one.

However, one very avid Apple fan, decided to show his love for the iPod and Apple in a different way.

An owner of a Fuji apple orchard printed up custom stickers of iPods and the Apple logo. He then put the stickers on his Fuji apples while they were still young and on the trees.

A month later after the apples had matured, he removed the stickers.
