I signed up for Imperfect Produce about 6 months ago. I'm relatively happy with the service. Despite calling the produce "imperfect" often the freshness and taste is better than what I find at the store. Caveat, I have not li

I read somewhere that Edmund's reaction to tasting turkish delight was a measure of the wartime deprivations he lived under. Sugar and fruit were rationed. Luxurious cuisine was a rarity. That, and the White Witch magic on the treats :
