Check Out This Strawberry

[GB]

I bought a batch of strawberries just because I saw this one inside.

 

[FrankZ]

That's ummm.. well.. umm.. interesting. How'd it taste?

 

[GB]

I promised it to my daughter. She has not eaten it yet.

 

[FrankZ]

Oh.. well.. let us know. Is it just funny looking or is it big and funny looking?

 

[GB]

It is bigger than my 5 year olds fist. It is basically 5 average sized berries all attached.

 

[FrankZ]

Oh goodness.. that is kinda big.

It always seems to me that the bigger the strawberry the less the flavor.

 

[GB]

Yeah I have found the same thing. Hopefully this one will be the exception.

 

[FrankZ]

I hope so too...

Good luck with it.

Got one close to that size a few weeks ago, except it was maybe 4 berries combined and it was very sweet. Tasted yummy!

 

[GB]

Excellent. That gives me hope.

I don't know if you should allow your daughter to eat that. It looks mutated to me. You'd better "test" it to be sure its safe.

 

[GB]

I took your advice and "tested" it first Alix. I was not disappointed.

The picture with the dog is the larger strawberries smaller brother. This one looked like 4 berries together.

 

[Alix]

Awwww! She just gets cuter all the time.

My folks used to have a strawberry patch beside their deck. I've seen large strawberries before. Maybe not as large as yours, but I don't recall the flavor suffering because of its size. Good going!

 

[GB]

Thanks Alix!

Yeah the flavor was just as good as the others. It was delicious.

I hope you have lots of room for grandchildren GB. You know that she is now destined to give birth to quintuplets don't you?

Neat strawberry!

The more the merrier, as long as they are grandchildren and not children

 

[expatgirl]

she'd love Poteet, TX.....it's known as the strawberry capital and its water tower is topped with.....you guessed it "a huge strawberry" instead of what usually passes for a water storage tank.......you probably could google it.....when they're in season you can pick your own for a small price and the kids have a lot of fun doing it

 

[GB]

Yes my kids would absolutely love that.
