Apparently misting veggies like this reduces their life, it’s mostly to make the veggies look more saleable rather than having them last longer (IIUC).
Really? I’ve only seen this practice on the American continent and I’ve always wondered.
These days I get my produce directly to my front door from a farmer. This stuff lasts for at least a week, often much longer. Compared to the produce from supermarkets that seem to rot on the way home already.
Here’s an article on the subject, and yes, it seems the misting is just to trick people into thinking “ooooh, fresh!”
They’re dismembered and being sprayed with plant blood, I think it’s a mixed experience at best.
Water isn’t “plant blood”, it’s just water. What you’d equate to plant blood is a mix of sugars, chlorophyll and other such things. Water is a part of the mix, like in your own blood, but mostly just serves as the solution that facilitates the transport of everything else.
Definitely not the preference of every vegetable in the garden. But for the ones that are into it I’m sure it’s a peak experience
Kinda like that rave scene from Blade? Awesomeness
This rots the vegetables
At least half those veggies are just the reproductive organ of the plant. So it’s kinda weird personified them like that. The rest had their roots chopped off.
I’m a vegetable and I love being squirted on.
