Subject: RE: Folklore: Deliberate imperfections
Evidently this "imperfection" status does not pertain to fruits and vegetables. Modern consumers shopping at super stores are loathe to buy apples and other "fresh produce" that are dented or spotted. In Florida imperfect appearing foods are not allowed to come to market.
