As it is, packaging costs for "straight" bananas is less than for "bent" bananas, as more of the former will fit into similar sized packaging.

Local research has proven that there is no difference in taste between the locally grown "straight" bananas and the "bent" varieties originating from east of the border.

Now they'll turn to their long cherished idea of bending Watermelons.

Footwarmers, i called them, as long as they were fresh.

I think that there is clear evidence that they have grossly underestimated the level of stupidity in the population as a whole.

The fact that nearly 60 million voted for Donald Trump adds plenty of credence to that theory
