You need a magnifying glass to buy veggies at the supermarket.

The last time I bought groceries, Anita helped me put away some of them. So I had´d seen the eggplant the shopper had brought. It was TINY!!!
I remembered that last time I went to a shop with Dixie. They had veggies and bread and she wanted to buy some bread. I asked the boy if they had eggplants and he excused himself saying that he thought that they only had one left.
I told him to bring it.
And he brought a giant yet tender eggplant. I bought it. If I hadn´t been so lazy, I would have made a moussaka with that eggplant. As it was, I cut it in hald and had it breaded it . They were enough for 2 lunches.
The eggplants at the supermarket are so tiny that I am hungry after eating a whole one. And they are a lot more expensive.
How is it where you live?

I saw the difference when I went with Dixie to a real market.

It’s been awhile since I’ve shopped in person so I don’t really know what all the fruits and veggies look like in person. Of course, I saw an onion my stepmom was slicing the other day, and it was huge. But she gets her groceries at a different store than I do.

It depends on the season here. Its coming the time of year here where most fresh produce is shipped in.

Years ago, we lived on the coast and were able to get crayfish from time to time. They were monsters compared to what you get nowadays - not that we ever get them now. They are too expensive.

i always thought there are like two sorts of eggplants and ones are big and the other are big.
big ones are better and easier to prepare. i like them breaded too, but i make more slices, not just halves
