Absolutely unbelievable!!!!

Is it really? How much damage can be done by the dreaded Low Bid with an $8000 cauliflower purchase? How many more businesses are qualified to provide the cauliflower?

This isn’t even apples and oranges. This is apples vs. refrigerators.

I’m sure the entire process was influenced by the powerful cauliflower lobby.
