I did well to wait to indulge myself with a pretty punnet of strawberries. In February, I didn't rush on the tasteless ones...
In general, they are produced in Spain with all kinds of chemical fertilizers, sold at € 4.50 per kilo.
I waited for the season and bought myself some delicious strawberries from Plougastel in Brittany at €3.50 a kilo. I did well to wait, didn't I?
