RE: Wild strawberries (original photo)

in #esteem6 years ago

I love the smell of strawberries, but these days they don't seem to have the flavor they used too. I think it is because they are grown in bulk and sold in stores as fast as possible.
I have grown them in my garden before and they taste so much better, and the smell is amazing too.
Hope you enjoyed them 😋

Sort:  

yeah, especially in the fascination were the children who helped their grandfather gather it in the woods!

Oh, you got these in the woods? I have never seen them grow like that before, here we have them in a field and we can PYO. other than that it is to the supermarket for them.
Like I said supermarket strawberries taste nasty, mass produced and they rot so fast, you get maybe 2 days at the most once you get them home.

Yes, it's impossible to buy a good strawberry in a supermarket, maybe some farmer will sell it on the market, but such berries will be much more expensive.
