Then I guess I’ll be checking with my supermarket as to why they were marketing them as such. Press releases were saying it was the test crop this past fall.

LIES

Apples (specifically Arctic Granny Smith) and zucchini varieties are available where I am most of the year. If I ate fruit I’d buy the papayas, but see above.

Sage advice

I don’t like fruit in general. Apples, grapes, cantaloupe, done.

Nope, just pink pineapple.

I usually go out of my way to completely avoid foods that use “GMO-free!” as a marketing strategy (except Boom Chicka Pop Cheddar Popcorn because it’s delicious), and will whole-heartedly purchase GMO food if available, but that pink pineapple is weirding me the fuck out so I say, NOPE!

Thank you for taking one for the team.

Could you imagine him trying to comfort the nation?!?

Comey, because he had to at least pretend to maintain he works outside of politics. I’d expect that from Chaffetz because he’s a little shit weasel and partisan Republican.

Well, Repubs were playing games with Zika funding and trying to defund PP at the same time because they’re evil and like to play with people’s lives.

Yeah, I was unclear you were specifically talking about a high-mortality pandemic, which H1N1 was definitely NOT. However it was still a pandemic

UN rarely comes into US for pandemic response. As for other countries, it’s possible, if they rely too much on us.

This I’ll agree with.

If you think this was a difficult issue, and I understand your reservations, you should have heard some others. I think I got my first gray hair out of it, and on top of that, they were never fully finished. And still probably aren’t.
