Bedok Stall Sells Ugly Fruits By The Bag For $3-10, Gets Massive Queues

Bedok Fruit Store Uncle Foo Is Near Bedok MRT

You may have observed aunties picking the best-looking apple from the pile at fruit stalls or supermarkets.

This behaviour stems from the common consensus that “ugly fruits” aren’t as fresh as the nicer looking ones.

But if you’re not bothered by how a fruit looks on the outside, there’s a store in Bedok that you have to check out.

Can eat one meh?

As the saying goes, appearances don’t matter as much as what’s on the inside.

In most cases, fruits with blemishes are perfectly edible and do not pose any danger to consumers.

Sadly, some Singaporeans are unaware of this and contribute to the rising food waste in recent years.
