You do realize that tupperware comes in different horizontal size as well, often in the same set

Like I have two that are about 18x12" and the initial post implies that these should be precariously balanced on top of the ones that are 4x6", which in turn are atop the 1.5x1.5" "dipping sauce" pieces

About a year ago my husband and I got a free hand-me-down iPad from his family.

Important facts:
1. My husband hates Apple products
2. He's been in the grocery business for years

I just realized that the unlock code he picked when he reset it is the PLU number on all banana stickers.

Edit: yes, it was a deliberate choice on his part, and a joke it took me a year to figure out

Right? I love infinitesimally in-joke humor like that. Lemme just cross-cross post what I just put over in the GWS industry thread:

I was just posting over in "PYF things you just figured out", and the subject of the post reminded me of this bit of BOH humor. First place I worked when I moved to Roanoke, they had a picture of this fine actor on the door to the fridge:



it was the Christopher Walk-In :downsrim:

That one took me a hot minute to get, but when I did, it was pure gold. (For those of you fortunate enough to have never worked food service, the big refrigerator where you keep all your cold stuff is called a walk-in, like a walk-in closet)

He doesn't like Apple. Deliberately not using the apple PLU is the entire point.

I actually asked why banana and not orange. Oranges have multiple PLUs, depending on the variety (navel, mandarin, etc). Bananas are all just 4011, or have a 9 up front if they're organic, like all organic produce. Plus bananas are inherently funnier than oranges, I guess.
