The supermarket is busy: everyone wants bananas today. Bananas, bananas, bananas from clocking in to morning break. The apples are getting low. Apples, apples, bananas, bananas until lunchtime.
Then a rest.
Now the peaches need topping up. Peaches, peaches, peaches, bananas, apples, bananas, peaches. The shoppers keep on coming, a horde of ravening appetites clutching shopping baskets and pushing trolleys, always wanting more, more, more!
Bananas, bananas, peaches, apples, bananas, apples, peaches, peaches, bananas, apples.
I am sequencing the fresh produce genome, and every crate of bananas and box of apples unlocks a little more of the code.

Hmm. That’s something new.
Soon I will know enough about fresh produce to understand how each component interacts with each other, and how different arrangements will lead to new and exciting results. In time, I will know how to alter the sequence for the optimum benefit to myself: to make people not want to buy any more fresh produce.
