Does this apply to all figs, Brother Mr. Mayor, Sir, or just those from Bethany? Obviously they couldn't be from the same tree, which Our Beloved Lord quite rightly zapped to death.
I would tend to avoid pretty much anything from Bethany, what with it being the home of Simon the Leper. You can't be too careful, can you? But those figs are from Kalamata, which is in Grease. Mind you, Kalamata is more famous for olives. And (thanks to poor illustrative skills) the label could show either figs or olives. It is all very confusing. I shall continue to avoid both.
