I think the biggest problem is the way they package the fruit, doesn't allow the moisture to escape and it goes moldy

Also it`s picked way too green, a lot of times fruit goes soft just as it starts to ripen.

I like apples but it's very hard to get a good one because they are stored in a warehouse and are usually 6 months old before they see a store and why I miss being near an orchard..

Apples do store a long time, that`s good for the producer and bad for us.

I like apples and apple pies except ones made with green apples. If I could find good fresh plums I`d be a very happy camper.
Too bad watermelon and cherries have a fairly short season.

I can't even with the sugar, but couldn't eat it anyway because it interferes with the medication I'm on..
