There is something to be said for ugly food. Real food isn't always shaped the way it is in our children's books. More often than not real fruits and vegetables will have dents and funny shapes and if we are really lucky it will have unexpected colors - hello red and green tomato or candy cane beets. Diversity in plants makes for a richer diet and agricultural system. Take some time to visit your local farmers market and pick up an heirloom tomato or a skinny eggplant. They are nature's bounty and I promise they will taste better than the pretty fruit at the market!
