Martha’s Family Reunion

Martha told me one day that she was excited about her upcoming family reunion. She has been my customer for quite a while. She could be described as a “raving” fan, having experienced the improved freshness and taste of her fruits and vegetables. Her plan was simple, to use my wash for the fruit salad she was preparing for her reunion. She just knew that this would present her with a chance to tell everyone about the virtues of my produce wash.

Family reunion day came, Martha made her fruit salad and off she went. Upon arriving she bounced out of her SUV with her salad in hand, wanting to find a prime spot on the two large tables set up for food. Much to her chagrin, there was already another fruit salad sitting on one of the tables. In just a couple of heartbeats, her plan had vanished!  Anyone watching would have noticed the air going out of Martha’s plan. What was she to do?

She quickly contemplated the table arrangement, placing her salad in an appropriate spot, some distance away from the “other one” and went about checking in with her family. It was a beautiful day, her family members were all arriving. Oh well, she thought, nothing ventured nothing gained.

Several hours later, everyone started to pack up. She went to the food tables to pick up her fruit salad. Since there were two bowls of fruit salad, there would be leftovers for her to enjoy during the following week. Much to her surprise, her bowl was 100% empty! She quickly looked for the other salad, found it and noticed that it had hardly been touched.

The following week she told me about her family reunion experience, sharing the details about her salad versus the other salad, all while apologizing for her plan gone awry. All I could do was smile, as I have seen and heard of this phenomenon many times. I explained to her the story about the two bowls of grapes, and that most often people do not realize that they will automatically gravitate to food that tastes good not knowing or caring why! Personally, I have had people argue with my explanation and honestly, the first few times I experienced these stories I wondered as well. Since this is my business, I hear these stories nearly every time I engage with my customers causing me to say “they are true!”

Adults will do the same as kids. Although, kids are much faster at making the choice. If given two choices of the same food to eat, and one tastes better we all eat the best tasting option, most of the time never questioning why!

If you don’t believe that this is a true story, try our wash. You will understand why.

Connecting the DOTS … ?????

Two bowls sit on the edge of the counter full of red grapes that have been plucked from their stems. Mom has figured out that by just leaving fruit on the counter her boys will wander by, as boys do, eating what they see. Getting her kids to willingly eat more fruits and vegetables is an important activity for their family.

One Saturday evening, Dad went to put the bowls of grapes into the fridge and noticed something really peculiar. One bowl was empty, the second bowl had been nibbled at but was mostly as full as it was in the morning. He took note and after the boys were in bed, he told his wife about his observation. She laughed and said: “I’ll be doggone, it must be true.”

She told her husband about this demo stand at her local grocery store. They were washing grapes with this new kind of fruit and vegetable wash. They talked about doing what she had done, wash one bowl with this new produce wash and one using any other method. She then put them out in two separate bowls to see what would happen. While she found the idea of a wash not leaving any residue or chemical taste to be intriguing, her experience was just the opposite. In the end she decided to try it, after all they have a money back guarantee.

Moms know that when it comes to food, kids come unfiltered. If they dislike something, they will tell her or just not eat.  Once again the wash won the eating contest, as the bowl that was eaten was the bowl washed with this new, intriguing fruit and vegetable wash called Earth’s Natural Fruit and Vegetable Wash. The un-eaten bowl was washed with just water, just as mom had always done.

If you don’t believe that this is a true story, try our wash, you will be in for an interesting surprise.
