For people who don’t cook, grocery shopping is very hard because some vegetables are very hard to distinguish. So, you would either bought all the things that match the descriptions or buy none. However, you might get some scolding afterward from spending too much or from not buying the thing.
This uncle was asked by his wife to do grocery shopping. However, he didn’t buy any citrus fruit that she asked for. The reason is he didn’t know which citrus she asked. The tweet garnered over 9K retweets and 14K likes for the very entertaining story.
To escape from her scolding, he made a presentation, showing what kind of citrus that he knows and asks her to be more specific. From the picture, the bigger one is Mandarin Orange, the smaller one is Sunkist Orange, the yellow one is lemon and the green one is a lime.
Some people speculate that he forgot to buy the citrus fruit. To escape from his wife’s scolding, he lectures his wife for specific information. Because sometimes by saying that we didn’t know or explained the situation, we might get away from forgetting to buy things.
The netizens were all amused by this and share their feelings regarding the hilarious story.
