Maybe it is not that there are too many commercials on tv for the newest meal deal at McDonalds or Burger King, the newest chocolate bar, etc, but rather that there are not enough advertisements for fresh delicious crisp crunchy raw vegetables, that are so handy and economical as a snack anytime or used in preparing a delicious meal and your body feels so great after eating them. Available at your friendly local greengrocer.
Greengrocers and vegetable growers sometimes have a problem of oversupply in peak season. Could that be an opportune time for promoting a healthy bargain and getting people in the habit of excitedly viewing the rows of colourful fresh produce displayed on the shelves of fruit and vegetable shops?
