Ingles of Georgia

Shopping down the isles of produce, my mind began to wonder
The banana says to the pear
"Hey cutie, can I peel you later?"
Pear replies, "Not unless you want to be bruised, loser!"

The avacodo states, "Senor do not hassle the pretty lady.
Si. We do not want any trouble" I have traveled many miles to come to this wealthy nation. I am wanting freedom and the american dream. Not war any day!"

Banana states, "Pardon senor, I too have traveled many miles to find my destiny!"
