Why is edamame always ready to expire? It´s so urgent for a vegetable. Edamame. It sounds like an assisted form of suicide. Is there an advertising concept in this?

About This Quote

The edamame in the picture is ready to expire. It is so urgent that it will expire and has to be eaten quickly. The fact that this is a vegetable and it will expire is an annoying inconvenience. The word “edamame” or “edamame bean” is a Japanese word for soybeans. It is not a common aspect of English vocabulary, so the fact that it sounds like an assisted form of suicide may be a play on the word “edamame” and its similarity with the word “expire.”
