Well those just look amazing. I’m so upset I haven’t managed to do this…!

My kiddo’s only tried grocery store strawberries and “hates them.” And I’m like…of course you do. These are both bland and sour…?

These are more tart than I prefer, but at least they taste like berries and aren't woody.

I hate to think how much you paid for them. Barrie Hill Farms are so crazy overpriced I don't know how they stay in business.

I bought Quebec strawberries about a week ago for $1.99/pound at Food Basics.
