Lousy fresh produce

[the_mind_of_gil]

I have decided to stop buying almost all fresh fruit (in which I include tomatoes). The cherries I bought this week were the last straw. They had absolutely no flavor whatsoever: none. If they had been chopped into small pieces and I were blindfolded, I could not have told whether they were cherries, tasteless canteloupe, tasteless peaches, or what

"Heirloom" doesn't always mean "good," unfortunately, but if you can find produce as locally grown as possible, that should taste better. Farmer's markets are usually local, but not always...and if it was grown far away and shipped, it wouldn't be as good.

I'm sorry that you don't have a decent local produce source. Are there any CSAs or Co-ops in the area that you could take advantage of?
