Do other people feel the same way as I do. Strawberries used to be small and sweet and flavoursome.
Watch this postDo other people feel the same way as I do. Strawberries used to be small and sweet and flavoursome. I go some the other day which were none of these things. I just weighed one and it was 50 grams. They were said (by the Coop) to be Kent strawberries. But really I can only think that they are grown for their size. They certainly don’t taste like some local ones I got from the local market. I have photographed a few to show the difference in size.

So many things are being grown in water with feed in, just awful.
Supermarkets put so much pressure on growers . The cucumbers that are grown only in water are disgusting the difference when you taste a home grown one is huge. People seem to have given up on taste we are being brain washed. I now try to buy from small local growers who still go for quality and taste.
