Store bought. Almost no smell. Probably not much taste, although certainly will be sweet.
Growing my own fruit has really spoiled me for flavour.
The dark grapes on the vines over the pergola have been feeding parrots for a month, and we have been lucky to get a few.
The Italia grapes on the back fence have not been popular so they have stayed long enough to ripen.
Crisp, slightly acid, almost perfumed.
Yummmm!

First go at a pre-cooked apple pie filling pie (with homemade crust, of course) with the first usable apples from my little columnar apple tree. Pretty tasty! #pie #GrowYourOwnFood #baking #FromMyGarden #homemade
Don't toss/compost your homegrown #PepperLeaves. #Harvest them because they're food. They can be used as herbs substitute if you don't have basil or mints. They can be cooked & eaten. They're nutritious, so start eating your pepper leaves!
Mom had told me that in her matriarch village, our relations grew & harvested #peppers & #leaves for many generations. It's used in many different Asian cultures as both food & medicine.
