Pesky packaging

entry picture

Now, I’m rather partial to clementines, I find their tang quite tasty,

but stores now call them ‘easy peelers’ so I can’t shop too hasty.

They do the same thing with satsumas so I once bought them instead.

What do they think they are playing at? They’re messing with my head!

So rather than study fruit bags or risk being their easy target,

next time I want clementines I’ll go ask for them on the market.

Thanks for reading and commenting, LCPTB.

Yes, I'm sure you're right, shops will be pushing everything they want to sell in whatever way they can.

As for weights you've hit on something there, and what a con to include the packaging in the total weight.
