One of the advantages of working at the Boise Co-op; we get the culls. "The cull is the set of items rejected during the selection process" - the items not thought worthy of our customers. So they're left for employees. I'm happy to have them, especially today as I bagged up two heads of organic cauliflower, two heads of broccoli, two red bell peppers and a nice bunch of green onions.
I came home, chopped them up and made myself a nice healthy dinner.
Sometimes I'm glad our customers are picky!

Yum. I would work for cast-off's too! Would you come cook something healthy for me?! I haven't been doing so well in that dept...
and how did you sneak so many new posts in on me??!!!
It's not just healthy, it looks so yummy too. I'm hungry now...
Yummy ... suddenly I'm hungry. Is it time for lunch already. BTW, it's 11.26 am in Malaysia now.
Oh, you call them "culls"... it looks very good.

Yum, what a luscious meal! And what a great benefit of working for the co-op, healthy free produce! My CSA gives me fabulous greens for the chickens (in exchange for eggs) for the same reason---members don't want the turnip or radish greens, there are lettuces etc. left over; eventually, there are flawed or overripe tomatoes and other produce. Of course, the chickens love it all. No wonder our eggs are the best around! And yes, like everybody else, I wish I could drop in on you and share that luscious dish!
Great cast offs! What a great thing to be part of the co-op.
And from what I understand, if you ever get tired of them, the girls will be able to help you out with them!
