We must need the sticker to tell us its a pear or an apple don't you think? Nice image.
Phillip Normanton30-Nov-2007 20:00
Ah yes - what's the point of 'em!!!
Yvonne30-Nov-2007 05:22
Nice looking pear though, I could chomp into that!

Must be entering the challenge for this week.

I agree. I bought 5 different pears and each had a different number and the skin comes off with the sticker.

However, remember that sticking on stickers is a good job in the off season.

I know and you end up chewing them if you don't catch them....I hate it when that happens!

Fruit tattoo :-)
Robin Reid29-Nov-2007 18:39
So we all have sticker shock! LOL
Michael Shpuntov29-Nov-2007 17:52
I'm here with you. But does not it make pear much more tasty if you know its number 4024? :-) Good shot and idea.
Michael Gehrisch29-Nov-2007 17:51
;-) They are there so we will know that the pear farmer's family you are supporting is American, which also gives us reasonable assurance about no illegal pesticides being used.
Guest 29-Nov-2007 17:16
I agree on those stickers too. Great shot!
Dan Chusid29-Nov-2007 16:04
Next they'll be stamping them with a biodegradeable UPC code!
Barbara Heide29-Nov-2007 15:36
nice dof!
Maaike Huizer29-Nov-2007 15:20
I agree. They spoil the lovely look of delicious fruit.
royalld29-Nov-2007 15:19
I thought I was the only one who complained about those things.
Victoria29-Nov-2007 14:58

Jola Dziubinska29-Nov-2007 13:36
Nice and sweet pear, though :)
sue anne29-Nov-2007 13:35
LOL yes those are alot of stickers to put on 'every' fruit and vegetable.
At least we know what we're eating and this looks delicious to me. :)
Tim van Woensel29-Nov-2007 13:34
