This is the first episode in our new series,  Cornucopia Express: Ten Items or Less (aka: A Podcast in a Hurry). In these four minute-ish episodes we will expand your understanding of the grocery and consumer packaged goods business as well leave you lots of time to beg your spouse for a foot rub, tell your teenager to turn down the  Ariana Grande, call your parents (and yeah we know you're hoping to get voicemail) and even scream into a pillow when nobody's looking. 

In this episode we'll explain why the heck there are stickers on your bananas, granny smiths and other fruits. And a few other interesting tidbits too that will make you smile like eating chilled grapes on a hot summer day without a pandemic. Thanks for listening! And please let us know if like these express episodes or not. We'd love to hear from you.
