I love to eat a bowl of them for breakfast. But sometimes I have trouble waking up and don't have time for them. Then I reach the weekend, looking forward to finally eating them... And half of them have spoiled. Damn it. I really wish they lasted longer.
Edit: didn't realize how ignorant people are - GMO is also used to make food hard for long transportation purposes, resulting in tough food with very weak taste.
Or just not GMO at all, it depends on what type of strawberries exist in the world already. I have noticed that the more "marketable" strawberries look, the less sweet and more acidic they taste, unlike strawberries that are grown by your grandma, which look like ass sometimes, but man, are they tasty! Can't say about pesticides and stuff like that, or if they even are GMO, and also I live in Europe.
Come to Canada and eat any of our supermarket strawberries, they're disgusting.
One of my Italian tour guides last year was so confused when I explained how our produce is nothing like what they have there. Strawberries are sour, not juicy, and white inside.
We do have some good local strawberries during the summer. This is why, to us, GMO is a bad thing
Where I'm from GMO is used to prevent ripening and damage during transportation which results in weak tasting and tough produce that can survive long distance transportation.
GMO has negative effects too, it's ignorant to think otherwise.
This is true. I should have specified that geographically GMO is a bad thing here because it's typically associated with creating hard tasteless produce that can survive long haul transportation
You mean to say it's stigmatized as a bad thing, and I'd accept that.
There's an apple called Cosmic Crisp that has to be the worst thing I've seen come from the Honeycrisp variant of apple. Genuinely just awful taste and texture, like it's got sand in it.
That being said, these are only a problem at supermarkets. Farmers markets are hard carries and don't typically have the 'grown for shelf life' produce you see at your typical Walmart.
Find a better term than GMO to describe what makes food suck. You might as well be saying that science makes food suck. Like...yeah, sure, sometimes. But that's incredibly vague and accomplishes nothing for you.
