 ripe, delicious, lush, nutritious. We come in all shapes and sizes, colors and shades, raw or cooked, sweet or bitter, soft, crunchy, fragrant, pungent. All of us unique and special, full of fiber, vitamins and minerals, history, culture and traditions. We don't just fill your plate, we fill your stories and memories, long and short, slim and plumb. Sometimes awkward or misshapen, forgotten or neglected, but never ever ugly. Whatever people say, because we're what really makes you tick, what makes your eyes sparkle and your smile dazzle. We are fruits and vegetables, simply beautiful.
