The Answer

The correct answer is: The mistakes are the foam fruit-protector sleeve and the resealable freshness strip..

  1. A pale foam sleeve wraps a pear in the front-center crate.
  2. A white resealable strip runs across the top of the upright paper bag behind the crates.
  3. Neither packaging detail fits the old roadside stand.
