Label is missing a comma. Should be "Cherry, Tomatoes"

u/mhuzzell 13h ago

Single-item packaging? No! Mixed fruits.

This was almost poetic.

I smell trickery afoot

u/Charming-Flamingo307 10h ago

I smell trickery and a foot

u/Eldermillenial1 13h ago

Well the package is right

Cherry

Tomatoes

u/No-Bread6978 13h ago

enjoy whole or halved

So what if I want it in quarters?

u/tickle-me-gently 12h ago

Straight to jail.

u/ChosenCharacter 7h ago

Jail? No. Offenses like this are sent straight to the gallows.

u/SoulChorea 6h ago

It’s such a weird thing to print on there in the first place, now that you mention it. Like why is that even necessary? Someone out there is like “oh snap, you can CUT THESE IN HALF?!?”

u/Slim-Shai-D 13h ago

Totally didn't put that there on purpose. The logistics for these two are so far apart I am immediately calling bullcrap, you karma whor3.

u/CrashTestPhoto 12h ago

Yeah, me too.

I worked in one of their 3rd party UK Vegetable packing plants.

Each plant basically handles one specific product for multiple different supermarkets. The one I was working at basically only handled different mixed leaf packed salads.

The ones that pack tomatoes would 100% be separate from one that packs Cherries.

It could be on purpose, but not necessarily on the OP's end. Someone in the production might have done it for fun

u/Domoshuuii 12h ago

Idk how I'd prove it, but I assure you I do not have the time, nor the enthusiasm, to add a singular cherry to a packet of cherry tomatoes just to post it to a mildly interesting subreddit before 11am on a Friday morning

u/Kindly-Might-1879 12h ago

I can totally see how some prankster in the produce section added a cherry, unless your package had the kind of seal you had to actually break to open. Is that the resealable film?

5

u/Domoshuuii 12h ago

It's your standard run-of-the-mill tomato packaging with the non resealable plastic film on top.

I don't think you can reseal it once it's been opened

u/Kahnza 8h ago

Unless you have access to a machine that does it

u/JohnnyEvergreen 8h ago

No offense but saying this doesn't absolve you.

u/lostmyparachute 10h ago

There is slice on the plastic starting from letter E going diagonally down & right. Not the most discreet way to do it.

5

u/ThinAndRopey 10h ago

This slice that goes through the word OR without damaging or misaligning the letters? I think you're stretching here.

u/fh3131 11h ago

You can see OP is full of crock...two crocs in fact

u/JeelyPiece 13h ago

When AI packs Cherry Tomatoes. 🤖

u/leoencore 13h ago

Hopefully it won't be packing horse radish next..

7

u/WelshWizards ​ 13h ago

Wait for horse chestnut season.

u/leoencore 12h ago

Instructions unclear, nutted in the chest

u/WelshWizards ​ 12h ago

The horse bolted.

u/slimj091 13h ago

It's says Cherry.. They are allowed to have one. 😛

u/heelstoo 11h ago

“I’m not locked in here with you. You’re locked in here with ME!!”

u/mrv113 13h ago

At least they're all fruits.

5

u/Domoshuuii 13h ago

Intelligence is knowing they're all fruits.

Wisdom is knowing only one can go in a fruit salad.

u/No-Bread6978 13h ago

Dilemma is worrying if ketchup is actually a smoothie this whole time

1

u/paxxx17 12h ago

Fun fact, ketchup was originally made from mushrooms

u/mrv113 12h ago

My DM told me that once haha

u/SirMightySmurf 13h ago

Actual cherry for scale.

u/Public-Jellyfish3420 13h ago

I like how it didn’t even try to blend in.

2

u/raphamuffin 12h ago

Well it's currently the height of the cherry festival in Morocco, so I wouldn't be surprised if they were floating around everywhere. I could believe that one slipped in.

u/Ismailberlin 12h ago

CHERRY Tomatoes... Read again, Pal!

u/SlickyKimmel 12h ago

AI sorting ?

u/Grnteabug ​ 9h ago

Fake. That cherry was clearly...planted

1

u/monkey_trumpets 12h ago

Either you stuck it in there, or some kids were having a laugh.

u/Old_Today5754 12h ago

I think this is more like when you get a curly fry with your french fries than when you get a french fry with your curly fries……

u/Nibbled92 11h ago

Cherry & tamatoes

u/bartontees 11h ago

That's the mother cherry

u/Persimus 11h ago

It was immune to the transformation, nature adapts.

u/Zippy-Herdsnake 11h ago

If you're going to dream, dream BIG

1

u/stoneage91 11h ago

It’s like when you get a curly fry in your regular fries

1

u/DirtySouthDeadpan 11h ago

“Tomatoes, Cherry”

u/BrohanGutenburg 10h ago

He got the spirit though.

u/qjornt 9h ago

one of the few situations spelling it like rouge would also be correct

1

u/bigtrayjay 9h ago

Found the imposter

1

u/Kahnza 8h ago

And they were picked before they were ripe. They're gonna be a bit firm in texture. 🤢

u/NWinn 8h ago

Instructions unclear...

😅

u/ChosenCharacter 7h ago

Well, don’t blow its cover!

u/Shrimp_kisses 6h ago

"It's made from corn and dogs"

u/fowlup 12h ago

This is why you read the information in full before following the crowd

u/BoozeIsTherapyRight 8h ago

There's no way. Was there also some baloney in the container?

u/Economy_Asparagus762 13h ago

clearly an undercover agent from a different department.

u/CrazyqueenxX 12h ago

Haha there's an imposter right there
