Which shopper's family do you think enjoyed beautiful avocados with dinner? And which shopper do you think was to be seen the next day, loudly proclaiming to anyone who would listen that it was impossible to get good avocados and they would never buy another one?

Well, to fine-tune the analogy, I think shopper #2 probably complained that he would never buy
from that store again -- he would only buy from the boutique store over in the city -- a store which only carries pedigree avocados *purported* to be guaranteed 100% ripe.
Of course, even that store had its misses.
But when that happened, the store manager told him with a smile that these were special avocados and you are
supposed to eat them that way.
