Hi Shari,
It's great to get input from an artist. I think artists see things differently, don't they?
I tried to figure out how to tell when eggplant spoils. After typing in "eggplant spoiled" at the browser for google, I got some picture of someone describing some kind of makeup for eyes, to my surprise.
Apparently, "eggplant spoiled" is, from a an aethetician's viewpoint, a cosmetic product, using a mix of makeup materials for women.
Come to think of it, the colours do look similar. I would never have know what goes on in women's powder rooms, purses and research labs until that search for eggplant shelf life.
But why would a woman want to attract a man who likes spoiled eggplants
I suppose it's 5-7 days in the fridge of shelf life, anyway from a site I had found(can't mention it out of respect for our forum guidelines).
