FINDING NATURE IN MY ORANGE -or- THERE BUT FOR THE GRACE OF GOD, GOES IN MY MOUTH

Oh Clementine, my little girl
Flown to me from around the world
Loosely robed in an orange skin
That shrouds the worms that lie within

Clementine oranges - such as the one pictured here - are on SALE this week at GIANT supermarkets for $4.99 a box. Your actual results may differ from mine and I do not guarantee that you will be as lucky as me in winning the worm lottery. And to be fair, I guess I should disclose that the other 9 segments of this clementine were worm free (at least at a visible level). But not real sweet.


Mothers, please act accordingly and responsibly when you pack these little treasures in your children's lunches(*).

(*) Maybe I digress, but is there a mother out there - anywhere - still making a lunch for her child to take to school?
