what the fuck

japs have some weird obsession with only buying perfect looking fruit

they have to wrap all their food because otherwise yanks would just start eating it as soon as they entered the supermarket

doing a poo

I'm American and have literally never seen an individually wrapped potato.

Because people eat and drink off the shelves then return it to place

That's cute

Maybe 2 nukes where too much.

Thank you for your service

what the fuck

It's more practical than giving each potato a gun.

Because it could have been touched by other person, they need perfectly sterilized and standardized commodity.

No need to thank me, sir. Just doing my job.

is this true?
But potatoes start rotting when they are wrapped in and have to contact to air

probably this
why they do that?

Those are "gift" fruits, just like you can give high quality chocolates or wine as gift for special occasions here.

That being said, even the "normal" fruits are quite expensive.

It's not like it's different in Europe. Just try to sell unperfect fruits/vegetable here, you won't sell a lot. All the damaged or non-perfectly shaped ones are sold to the processing industry to produce processed food for humans (or for animals if it's really too damaged/rotten).

And they charge you 1 dollar each for them...pfft

Shut the fuck up, European subhuman.
Your entire fucking country should have been burned to the ground, every single German slaughtered.

Get the fuck out of Japan, vermin.
Death to America.

I'd be kinda disappointed if as a gift, I got an apple or a potato

People do that everywhere its pretty disgusting honestly.

To keep the mold fresh

Someone's got a puckered bunghole

The real question is whether that white stuff is mold or spiders

What if you weren't fat and the apple super delicious?

Is that fucking mold under the plastic

I think potatoes and apples are delicious, but it's a weird gift. Like giving someone a gift wrapped bag of onions.

Spic spit

He isn't wrong tho

Well don't think of potatoes or onions but beautiful fruit. I think it's nice and would welcome a nice fruit as gift, though they go a bit overboard with the packaging and pricing.

I've only ever seen potatoes in large sacks, not individually wrapped

Those are prewashed

For some reason cucumbers, broccoli and bell peppers are individually wrapped here. Nothing else.

This is actually practical thing in order for apples not to be smiten or damaged anyway

I wanna cum on that melon.

See?

They are probably prewashed and it also prevents people from putting their dirty hands on them.

more employment and business opportunities
mfs had to buy and sell the plastic wrap on the potato to each other

We don't
t. regularly buys 5 lb sack of potatoes

I would hate living there just because of this. Everything packaged 10 times over.

Cultures that don't appreciate simplicity and modesty are sub-human.

Nobody does this, most food stores are like pic related, you grab what you want, put them in a bag, weigh it, and pay per pound

Death to firstie

It's kinda hard to believe you now.

You could also buy potatoes like this in some places but the former is more common

It's more like a courtesy gift, not a christmas gift

I've only seen organic stuff wrapped like that, I don't buy it because it's more expensive
