Fuzzy Limes

As a responsible parent, one must encourage the intake of fruit in our children. The Girl was looking for a snack the other day and I steered her towards fruit, as she did not consume enough dinner to warrant sweets.
The Girl: Dad, what kind of knife should I use to peel Kiwi?
Me: A sharp kind, why? We don't have Kiwi.
The Girl: Yes we do, look.
And she showed me. It was a plastic bag containing three moldy fuzzy limes.
Me: Those aren't Kiwi, those are fuzzy limes and you can't eat them.
Any parent knows you have to tell the child they can't eat rotten food. Most children either don't care or are just dumb enough to do it anyway. She ate a black bannana instead.
