Talk about creating a fuss about nothing! :rolleyes2

Strawberries and strawberries where ever they come from. I actually think the Cornish and USA strawberries are better than British ones. The british ones tend to go off quicker and don't have as much flavour.

But hey i wouldn't really notice or indeed care when picking them up for £1!!

Also rhubarb, broad beans, raspberries, gooseberries and blackcurrants - brilliant!!

Is Cornwall not part of Britain anymore then?? :rolleyes:

You can get nice and awful stawberries from anywhere - including USA & including Britain, essentially it's the variety that determines the flavour. But what's the point of importing fruit (of any kind) when it's actually in season here - and cheap too!

Check the country of origin before you buy. My Asda had most of them from Holland, and a few of them from Scotland. I bought the Scotland ones.

Just checked mine and they are from Scotland.

They are by far the best I have bought/tasted this year!

Great buy for £1.

No, Cornwall (Kernow) is not, nor ever has been part of Britain ...not in the eyes of us true Cornish anyway..rumour has it three strawberry farmers in Camborne fainted with vapours when they read this post this morning...whoops wrong thread I think..........:rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: Have to admit the USA strawbs have been the biggest hit in my house so far.
