Mini Peaches?

The other day I saw a plate of these sitting on the counter, and thought, "Mini-Peaches. How cool!" They were soft, which is good for peaches, so I ate one. I wasn't very good. It was bland. It wasn't sweet. So later that day my mom came home and I told her, "Those wern't very good," and pointed to the "Mini-Peaches". She said, "Yeah, I was really disappointed with them too. They're very soft." I didn't read too much into this, but wondered why anyone would want a hard peach? So, later later that day, My Aunt Beck came over and was looking at the "Mini-Peaches". Our conversation went something like this:

AB - "Oh these look nice."
G - "They're not very good. They didn't have much flavor. It wasn't a very good peach."

She stops and looks at me.

AB - "That's because they're not peaches!"
G - "What? Yes they are?"

She starts cracking up.

AB - "No they're not! They're apricots!"

I start cracking up.

G - "What? No. They're mini peaches!"

At this point we're both laughing hysterically. Apparently, it wasn't very good to me as a peach. And apparently, it wasn't a very good apricot either. And apparently, there is no such thing as "Mini Peaches".

The next day I came home and saw peaches on the counter...I think.
