Meanwhile rent is going up? Oil is more expensive? What an absolute shit show. Imagine getting paid to destroy production to keep profit margins up, god forbid anyone got a cheap peach.
What, and let corporations hold the bag? Are you high? /s
We can't predict the future but I'm in the camp that if we collectively get our shit together food will stop being a "everything I want now and always" to "eat what is local and in season first"
In the words of a favorite skit of mine: Let’s Pickle em!
I heard in the original post that these peaches suck and that's why del monte is having problems. I'm all for saving trees, but if we're going to replace them with trees people want I'm all for that.
i mean i'm from the area. ish. remember the whole boycott USA thing? we have the best damn peach ranch (don't ask me why peaches get ranches and strawberries get farms) about five miles down the road. i just damn near had a heart attack because their social media's last post was a memoriam for a family member and i thought they sold the farm. the boycott is why they're struggling, not the peaches.
Fruits grown on trees come from orchards?
i know. it's just what they named their farm.
Yeah, I read something about that, too. These were bred to grow fast, look good in the store, and last long on the shelf. Flavor was one of the least considered traits.
Damn. I love peaches*. Peaches and cream ice cream is mad delicious. Had a dessert once, ages ago, where the peaches were set on fire for a short bit. Also crazy good.
Peaches lovers unite. Let’s go score some delicious peaches before they are burned away!
"peaches (and cherries/berries) jubilee" is probably what you had
White peach is best peach. All other peaches are inferior. I can't wait for my annual peach pilgrimage where I but 100s of dollars of peaches just to give them away because everyone must try a white peach.
my friend, i need you to come to the peach ranch. last year they were growing what they called "white lady" peaches. you had to eat them over the sink or outside.
how do i get to the wet ass peach ranch
Look up Brazeltons peach ranch. They are only open summers, I think maybe June to September? Unfortunately their only website is a Facebook
Yeah I planted a white lady jn my back yard, I'm pumped for this year. They are so damn good. Ugh I'm craving one so hard right now. I lie I'm craving at minimum a 4L
