I was grocery shopping last Friday and approaching the avocados when a woman zoomed in front of me. I politely backed away to my mandatory 6 feet and watched her fondle the majority of the avocados to select her eight perfect avocados and bag them.

Her hands were protected by latex gloves, but I had no idea how clean her gloves were or what they came in contact with prior to the avocados.

I wanted to ask her which avocado she didn’t cup and squeeze, but considering that she handled approximately four or five avocados for each one deemed suitable, it was a moot point.
