Houston, we have a problem



Being a slightly impatient gardener, I thought I would pull a couple of carrots, purely for quality control measures of course. But there is something wrong, very very wrong with my carrots. They are not even remotely purple as their little tag suggested. Not even a soft violet or a hint of mauve. Not a trace of indigo or plum to be seen. No they are well and truely ORANGE.

Incidently there are no words in the english language that rhyme with either purple or orange.

Wonder how many words rhyme with ripped off?

Oh wow, isn't that funny - they really aren't purple at all, are they?

How did that happen do you think? You should write to the company and see what they have to say.
