      Typical NA strawberries are GMO and suck though

      Edit: didn’t realize how ignorant people are - GMO is also used to make food hard for long transportation purposes, resulting in tough food with very weak taste.

          Or just not GMO at all, it depends on what type of strawberries exist in the world already. I have noticed that the more “marketable” strawberries look, the less sweet and more acidic they taste, unlike strawberries that are grown by your grandma, which look like ass sometimes, but man, are they tasty! Can’t say about pesticides and stuff like that, or if they even are GMO, and also I live in Europe.

            Come to Canada and eat any of our supermarket strawberries, they’re disgusting.

            One of my Italian tour guides last year was so confused when I explained how our produce is nothing like what they have there. Strawberries are sour, not juicy, and white inside.

            We do have some good local strawberries during the summer. This is why, to us, GMO is a bad thing

              I would dare to say that the Mediterranean has the best fresh produce in the world (not biased, I’m from the north).

          Genuine question, where are you from?

          Where I’m from GMO is used to prevent ripening and damage during transportation which results in weak tasting and tough produce that can survive long distance transportation.

          GMO has negative effects too, it’s ignorant to think otherwise.

        Find a better term than GMO to describe what makes food suck. You might as well be saying that science makes food suck. Like…yeah, sure, sometimes. But that’s incredibly vague and accomplishes nothing for you.

      I love to eat a bowl of them for breakfast. But sometimes I have trouble waking up and don’t have time for them. Then I reach the weekend, looking forward to finally eating them… And half of them have spoiled. Damn it. I really wish they lasted longer.

        You could extract their flavor, fill it with added sugars, saturated fats, preservatives and food coloring

    I have never seen a man with this hairy of a torso / chest who also had smoothie upper arms like that. Quite the combination.

      At this rate we’ll be renting individual strawberries to show off at parties.

      (This was a real thing with pineapples, once upon a time.)

          Because selling individually wrapped products that don’t need to be individually wrapped is a thing in various Asian cultures. I see this all the time at my local H Mart and 99 Ranch.

    It just realized that, as a furry, I really don’t like furry men, only furry men.

    What the hell.

    Maybe don’t eat that strawberry. If it’s collecting a nice coat of chest hair then it might be time to throw it out.

    Edit: I can’t get over how smug that man looks about his chest hair. He expects for you to be impressed, and ngl, I kinda am.
