Supermarkets get fined heavily for throwing away food.

Americans waste 219 lbs per person each year, compared to 44 lbs in France, and thatā€™s before even the 2015 laws that ban food waste.

Oh, okay, I see that. I do think itā€™s kind of odd how itā€™s dressed up with that red wrap.

Olpea! Its impossible to travel anywhere these days. Thank goodness I take pleasure in art, culture, fruits and veggies. The point of my pictures is to show the simplicity and beauty of what they grow here plus the different varieties, yesterday began a ā€˜caniculeā€™ (heatwave) that will stop this weekend, rain, then start again next weekā€¦ 89-90 every day for another/ week. The heat will make the fall peaches very sweet. Iā€™ll try and find names of the varieties!
