Steve, just so you know, it's not that people actually buy zuchini. A well-meaning person may grow a plant or a couple of plants, thinking innocently, "won't it be nice to have an occasional zuchini for our family." One plant will then likely go on to produce about 10,000 zuchini. It's a waste to throw them out, so people take extras to the office, give them to their neighbors and put them in paper bags to drop into the cars of those people ignorant enough to leave their windows rolled down.
