Yes, they are stored next to the round orange fruit (I forget what that fruit is called, the juice is delicious though.)

My trademark on the term “Banana®” went into effect as of June 1, 2019. If you have not yet purchased a license, kindly cease and desist from using the term in online postings.

Fits right in with LiartownUSA. Previously: https://boingboing.net/2013/03/08/if-you-like-surreal-photoshop.html (sadly that blog has taken a long term/forever break)

Should say: Artisanal handpicked curved yellow fruit. Also, should be $1.50!

Is it a squash of some kind?
I’ve never seen them with squared off ridges along the length like that. The result of growing under too tightly packed conditions in factory farm setting?

Finally some in-store pics of Apple Cabin Foods. I’ve always wondered what that place looked like.

My kid’s early years were spent in coffee shops and we didn’t ever buy typical junk food items. So one day walking through the grocery store when my daughter was 3 or 4, we walked past the Hostess products area. She exclaimed excitedly, “LOOK CHOCOLATE BAGELS!” when she saw the chocolate doughnuts.
