A Second Chance for ‘No Good’ Produce

In this episode, three pairs of siblings are asked to rescue ‘NG (no good) produce’. First they search for fruit and vegetables that don’t look so good and learn what ‘NG produce’ actually means. Next they prepare gift packs made from leftover fruit and vegetables. Through this mission of giving out ‘misshapen produce’ gift packs, they urge the public to be ‘food wise’, to reduce food waste, as well as to accept ‘NG’ fruit and vegetables. Just as our fingers differ in length, each of the three pairs of siblings have different talents. By working together to complete each mission, they are able to appreciate each other’s strengths, while also understanding and accepting their respective differences. This also applies to all the unappetising fruit and vegetables. Being ugly is not a sin. Even with flaws, roughness or deformations, a less desirable appearance does not necessarily affect edibility. By saving ‘NG produce’ and together giving the leftovers a makeover, children learn to co-operate with their siblings when facing these challenges. The tasks in the series are related to social services, in the hope that the children learn more about our society through the competition, and also develop ethical values while learning through play.
