Supply and command

A fly in the sand.

This is off topic but when I go to the grocery store do I put each different vegetable in its own bag? Or do I put a couple in the same bag

How old are you? 12?
Anyway, you put them all in separate bags because they're priced by weight.

The hymen be damned

If they're the same, it's normal to put them in the same bag. Different stuff should go in different bags.

It's common for produce to be sold by the each.

Supply and demand. Puerto Ricans buy them all.

He does. By the pound, by the kilo, by the each. It's chunky but it's not wrong to say. You could say 'sold individually' or something, but then that technically means something else.

"By the item" is better than "by the each." In fact, I've never heard anyone say that.

It makes whoever says it sound like an utter retard.
