[QUOTE="donna723, post: 593285, member: 1883"] What amazes me is that people are so willing to pay twice as much for apples just to have someone else peel and slice them for them! Have we grown that lazy? Nobody is [I]that[/I] busy! And do we really need grape-flavored apples? There is a difference between "convenience foods" and just plain silly! For example ... our grocery store sells baking potatoes either loose by the pound or in a bag. But now they also sell individual potatoes that have already been washed and wrapped in aluminum foil - just pop them in the oven! They are approximately twice the price of the loose baking potatoes in the bin! And yes, people buy a lot of them! These people are perfectly willing to pay twice as much just to avoid having to prep them themselves! Really! I mean, how long does it take to wash a potato and wrap it in foil? And these are probably the same people who complain about their grocery bills being so high! [/QUOTE]
