A cliché is defined as an expression that lots of people say and conveys some sort of message. Here the cliché alluded to is "comparing apples and oranges" meaning "making a mistake by comparing 2 things that are not the same". Here the oranges are represented by the bottles of Mandarin Orange flavored vodka. |
