1. One morning, as customers were browsing through the aisles of La Nueva Tienda Latina, an announcement came over the loudspeaker: ‘Please be advised that our avocados are now officially considered fruit, not vegetable.’ A regular stopped mid-cart and asked, ‘Why does it matter?’ A delivery driver shrugged and replied, 'Well, it matters because if they're a fruit, then maybe they should be in the produce section with bananas instead of with tomatoes.' Just then, a neighbor walked by and chimed in, 'Or maybe it's just another way for us to argue about what constitutes a vegetable!' Everyone laughed, and life—along with the layout of the store—went on.
