FRUIT
Recently I purchased what I thought were 21b of grapefruit. I received about three grapefruit; the rest were marmalade oranges. When I complained, my greengrocer replied: "I bought them for grapefruit and sell them as that." Why have we to put up with such a thing? Little children should not be expected to eat such bitter fruit as marmalade oranges when there .is an abundance of ou?' own grapefruit. Could not these fruits be marked so that we mothers know what we are buying? FAIR PLAY.
