BananaTude tip of the day - 01/20/12 11:33 AM
BananaTude tip of the day
I was in Walmart yesterday and went to get some bananas.  When I got there all I could find were overripe or rotten bananas.  I guess Walmart's BananaTude is that if they only put the old bananas out then that is what people will buy.
