Can we have Equality for Strawberries?

EQUALITY FOR STRAWBERRIES​
 
It’s time to give equality
back to strawberries.
You see, years ago we could just
buy a punnet of strawberries.
 
Now we have labelled our
favourite summer fruit and
separated former friends and
family, into at least four categories.
 
Those at their peak
come with the highest price.
Those in their later days
get rapidly discounted,
and have a reduced label
plastered across their front.
 
Those with disabilities
are called ‘wonky’, as we highlight
some perceived ‘imperfection’.
And those who have less,
become ‘essentials’ or own brand.
 
I bought these four different
packets of strawberries and
emptied them into a bowl.
They all looked fabulous together
and tasted wonderful!
