Truth: Fruit. It's not that they're picked at the ''peak of
  freshness'' but rather, at the point where they are rotten
  enough for humans to enjoy eating but not TOO rotten.

  ''Hey ma? are those green bananas rotten enough to eat yet?''

  Yup. Ripe=properly rotten. Now you know. I love eating fruit.
  Knowing this doesn't take away from it
