Exclamation Warning! Humourous Content: Dead fruit!?!?

Happened across this scene as I was going to the fridge. I paused, and snapped this shot.

I have no idea why so many photographers take photos of dead things but I couldn't resist.

Dead Fruit

Sorry, I couldn't help myself...

As Always; Enjoy!

You've been reported!!!!

I'm with PETF and we will be contacting you, your family, friends, local news stations and many of our nutjob associates in your area after your flagrant abuse of fruit. Should you feel the desire to make amends we will allow you to take part in an ad that calls for the cessation of the objectification and abuse of fruit by the populace. Should you believe we have no power over you then I refer you to the actors in the film American Pie. It was our association that brought their careers to a halt after the molestation of innocent cherries in that film.

We suggest you immediately send us 2000.00 US immediately and an amount to be determined later and we may allow your career to continue. If you choose to ignore us then we will have thousands of our followers stand naked outside your place of business while planting various fruit trees to make up for your callous actions.

Sincerely,
Stan Lipschitz
Counsel of Record
People for the Ethical Treatment of Fruit.
