Mustard Death Posted April 13, 2007 Share Posted April 13, 2007 Here I am, enjoying a bowl full of delicious strawberry goodness, and what could I think to do? Share how great they are with you guys. Now, I know most of you are probably already keen on this suprising fact, however, there are some who are still in a black abyss of darkness when it comes to these sweet red delights... therefore, I am here to share my all knowing knowledge of this almost to good to be true food. So, heed my words, and go forth, into a land of amazing taste bud sensation... and buy some strawberries. Feel free to post about any other badass fruit (or food in general) if you are compelled to do so. Thank you, and good day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atomic.Feedback! Posted April 13, 2007 Share Posted April 13, 2007 Folks, let me tell you about a little something I stumbled across a few years ago. You all are familiar with the olive, right? A bite-sized veggie grown in Italy (and similar places), usually served as an hors d'oeuvres or on a relish tray. Someone, who should be remembered in the annals of history as a revolutionary in the small, bite-sized veggie department, has changed the way I look at olives. You all know how olives have little pits which are usually filled with little red thingies, right? This nameless genius came up with the idea to put other kinds of food in the olive pit. Specifically: THE JALEPENO. Combining the olive's sort-of-picklish flavor with the kick of a jalepeno pepper, the JALEPENO OLIVE is the most incredible bite-sized veggie hybrid in existence! Managing to be both dignified and wild, spicy and bitter, classy yet not one of your "holier than thou" veggies (*cough*carrot*cough*), the JALEPENO OLIVE should be a welcome addition to your larders. So go out there. By a bottle of JALEPENO OLIVES. You can thank me for it later. ~A.F! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-D-RocK- Posted April 13, 2007 Share Posted April 13, 2007 That sounds like the perfect food for me, being that I am dignified, wild, spicey, bitter and classy....... <note: insert sweet in place of bitter> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ancient Ways Posted April 13, 2007 Share Posted April 13, 2007 We love the strawberry so much that we have a festival for it. Every February a town just east of Tampa called Plant City has the Strawberry Festival. When the Cincinatti Reds used to train there they sold flats of them outside the ball park. They are pretty good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am a huge hot food fan and last year grew around 144 hot pepper plants. Yes, strawberries are awesome and one these years I will get my act together and plant some. I do have apple trees, blueberries and blackberries. I have read to watch out for the chemicals used on strawberries and to wash them very throughly. I guess strawberries are one of the worst offenders from a chemical standpoint. Go Organic! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GeddyRulz Posted July 2, 2007 Share Posted July 2, 2007 I saw a news report a couple nights ago that said the strawberry crop this year is great - very large berries, plentiful, and very sweet - because of a rainy growing season this year.
