Some people try to buy organic vegetables, but buy regular vegetables by mistake. And then there are people who don’t buy vegetables at all.
“I hate it when I think I’m buying ORGANIC vegetables but when I get home I discover they’re just REGULAR donuts” is a jocular saying that has been printed on many images. The saying was posted on Twitter by Robin McCauley Lynch on November 10, 2012.
