I think it was Ocean Spray cranberries were on How It's Made or another show like that where they showed their laser powered cranberry grader that would ID perfect berries at near supersonic speed and an air puff would shoot any imperfect ones off the line. That was pretty cool.

Produce samples would be nice! Could probably do that at the farmers market.
