Why have Asda got tinned tomatos in the vegetable aisle?

Would you eat them with cream as a dessert?

How would that decision affect what they actually are? Should we have
an aisle labelled "stuff that goes with this other stuff?"

I want a tomato, I know it's a fruit, so I should go to the fruit aisle!

As with most supermarkets the section is "Fruit and Veg" I don't see the
problem, and not everyone knows (or cares) that a tomato is a fruit.


If they don't know what a fruit is, do they know what a car is? I guess
the yanks don't know what a truck is, they think a 4x4 is a truck.

Come to that a lot don't even care what it tastes like.


If it's fruit and veg, there isn't a problem. But my Asda has a fruit
aisle and a veg aisle.

I can't understand why, if you despise that supermarket so much you
give them so much free advertising


I haven't given them any advertising, only bad press.

and don't take your custom elsewhere.


I already do, but for a different reason. I only buy 3 items in there which Aldi and Morrisons don't stock.

How many potheads does it take to change a light bulb?
Two. One to hold the bulb against the socket, and the other to smoke up until the room starts spinning.

Fresh tomatoes, canned tomatoes and tomato puree?


Pizza, triple chocolate fresh baked cookies, and fly spray.

Why bother? They are a lovely iridescent colour close up, and it would be
a real bother masking off the legs.

I'm not close up. I do it to prevent the noise.

A brunette, a blonde, and a redhead are all in third grade. Who has the biggest breasts?
The blonde, because she's 18.
