Question

B

Have you ever seen a carrot that looks like a nose or an apple that looks like a funny face?They may not look great,but they taste as good as the pretty ones.These strange-looking fruit and vegetables are called “seconds”.About 20-40 percent of what farmers grow is not so beautiful.Sadly,these “seconds” hardly ever arrive at your table, but often go straight into the trash can(垃圾箱). Why? It’s because supermarkets don’t want to buy them from farmers-- they believe their shoppers only love beautiful things.Because of these “seconds”, some farmers lose lot of money.

Wonky Market wishes to change this.We ‘re helping sell these “seconds”. Farmers can save them from the trash can,and you can get them at a lower price.

Send us photos of your delicious dishes that are made with our “seconds” to oneandonly@wonkymarket.com, and you may win our cookbook.
