Corporate Tomatoes

by: Nancy Goedert They're so PREtty CORporate toMAtoes They're not JUicy just PREtty and MOIST. THERE's no FLAvor but they're FIRM (pause) and they SHIP (pause) so WELL. You won't TASTE them so THEY won't Cover the FLAvors of THE other FOODS. No SWEET, no TARTness and no JUices dripping DOWN your CHIN. SEE the pretty toMAtoes ON the SHELF. See how aITRACtive they ARE. SEE the pretty RED. See the pretty SHAPE. Feel its firm FORM. Such a pretty FRUIT. Corporate toMAtoes. Who needs FLAvor? Who needs JUiciness - THAT'S just a MESS. I Say good BYE to the FRUITS that WE used to LOVE.
