Yes, Michele. A long time ago, my sister gave me an apple off her tree. I put it on the top shelf of my refrigerator, intending to eat it in a few days. Unfortunately, I forgot all about it. When I cleaned out my fridge a few months later, I came across the little guy. Poor thing had developed vitiligo, as there were white patches on its skin. Feeling sorry for the poor thing, I left it in the fridge. A few months later, I checked in on it. I guess the fridge had gotten too cold, as the apple had grown a thick fur coat (hid its vitiligo nicely). How could I toss out an apple with vitiligo who had just grown a nice fur coat? I mean that would be cruel. So I left it in there (as a joke, I named it Michael). I guess Michael had a bit of incontinence, as when I checked in on him again there was a trail of pee from him to the carton of milk on the other side of the shelf. I also noticed that he was a bit bloated as well. Over the next few weeks Michael grew bigger and bigger as the bloating continued to intensify. There a also a strong smell of methane in the fridge (apple farts?). The next time I checked in on Michael, I was in for a big surprise. A tiny green leaf was staring to emerge from the center of the bulge. Michael was a Michelle. I’m sure as heck not going to eat Michelle!
I bought a bunch of scallions for something specific I wanted to make today. I only needed two, but they only sell them by the bunch. So I may as well just go toss them now because I probably won’t use the rest before they get wilted and gross. So you need an option F for other.
