My local Sainsburys uses fluorescent tubes that seem to have a

Maybe they are trying alter how green bananas are perceived by
the public.

All large supermarkets will use different colour temperature light
fittings over the fruit and fresh meat counters. With (green) grapes you
cannot see the over-ripe ones until you view them under the lighting in
other parts of the store.


Slightly apropos:

We painted our walls in 'Calico' #e3ba93 (it looks a
lot lighter on the walls.) When we installed CFLs it
looked like baby ****. Fortunately, I had laid in a
stock of Chinese incandescent lamps before they became
illegal.
