I bet they are especially tasty!sheilahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10216149086520612937noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1842136564899097734.post-37723951900380411132011-09-07T21:55:57.977-07:002011-09-07T21:55:57.977-07:00I get produce from 15 of those big box stores -- t...I get produce from 15 of those big box stores -- think sams club or costco, for instance. <br /><br />Part of the agreement i have is that I not talk about the particular chain, so I'll be circumspect about that, but I'd imagine that any large grocery store chain or produce distributor produces stuff like this every day. <br /><br />This is the backside to the perfect produce displays you see when you shop. You'll never see a bruised peach, or a moldy strawberry. This load was particularly good looking, and it was comprised of stuff that is pretty expensive to buy. Who else feeds their pigs blueberries and peaches? <br /><br />It's a little funny. My production pigs, the ones I sell for meat, are fed this produce almost exclusively. Makes for really nice pork. And mostly corn and soy free, too. The only corn they get is the sweet corn that's mixed into the produce as part of the load.Bruce Kinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10995706761794063165noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1842136564899097734.post-6674314197685356692011-09-07T21:47:12.498-07:002011-09-07T21:47:12.498-07:00Bruce,
