I had a totally different box. No eggplant, zucchini, grape tomatoes, grapefruit or pineapple. No nectarines (from the newsletter) either. Are you 1/2 fruit again?
We did get 4 apples, and a bunch of bananas. Also, there was kale and cilantro and a green pepper.

Oh, I just noticed. You're still 2/3 veg, like us.

I have a bunch of things I don't want that you get: kale (I only like lacinato kale), cilantro (smells/tastes awful to me), and while I like almost all peppers, I don't like green bell peppers (they're not ripe yet :-). I've taken apples off my list because I wasn't happy with what I had been getting.

With the farmer's markets started and the farm share starting in a couple of weeks, I'm thinking of cutting back, or maybe going on hiatus until the fall.

I'm not a huge fan of cilantro myself- I prefer parsley. I actually asked SO to pick up some parsley the other day, and since there was a sale involved, I ended up with a bunch of curly parsley, a bunch of flat leaf, and a bunch of dill. (SO thought the flat leaf was actually cilantro, so it could have been worse- I could have had 2 bunches of cilantro now!)
I would cancel the kale, but I try to be good and eat a variety of green veggies besides my favorite broccoli, spinach and zucchini.
