When "Scientifically Grown" was seen as a selling point

Ha.  Beware of monks bearing test tubes.

LOL!  I'm going to randomly say that to someone as if it were some wise pearl of wisdom.   :D

No, not kidding.  This was a legitimate vegetable crate label, I think from the 1960's.  It probably was from the 60's because if anything sold back then, it was sex.  A couple of different growers utilized the art work for their shipping labels.

Haha.  Glad you liked it Shay.  Bart's 'scientifically grown' remark made me think it up.  ;D

They must have seen a lot of grapefruit and melons to mushy the Drunken Leprechaun’s family.
