My wife likes soft fruit such as strawberries, plumbs, raspberries, and the list goes on, well although when seeing these fruits on display they look good that is .........until you try to eat them,.. many are either slightly hard or have very little taste,
i suppose being force fed, doesn't help, as yet years ago many green grocers had a nice display and if in doubt who say try one, and usually it did the trick as people having sampled one spread the word to others milling around,
I can remember my late mother who loved the Victoria plumbs,and she loved them i distinctly remember seeing her wiping her mouth as these plumbs were very juicy, my wife's late mother a lovely lady who also had passion for golden plumbs, yet today its almost rare to find any fruit that looks and taste like its just come off the tree at all,
since many of the Kent orchards have long gone, do you think the government should encourage fruit growers to begin growing home grown fresh fruit, instead of many of the imported ones, which are a waste of money. it must be nice if you have a large garden with a number of fruit trees in it, after all you cant get better than that,.
Q; have you any thoughts on fresh home grown fruits,
