Many crops are grown to be bland-tasting but pretty to look at

What will be an ideal response?


Look at, for example, Delicious apples. The apples do look good, but their taste

States, the superficial look sells. When I lived in Germany, I found that the appearance was
perceived as less important. Clearly the appearance standard is culturally dependent.
