I love peaches and ripe juicy peaches are supposed to be in season here.
Most of them come from somewhere else, I know, but they are in the markets
now.
What I want to know is why some are ripe, juicy and delicious as I have
remembered from my far off childhood and some that you buy are dry, mushy and
yukky to eat.
In our house we refer to the second type as paper peaches and discard them,
no-one will eat them. You cannot tell which kind you are getting when you
buy them.
What has happened to peaches. When did this yukky kind appear? The mushy
dry ones look good in the stores, they do not look different from the juicy
ones. Lately, I have made a produce man cut them in half and I have a look
before I buy them. I know they hate this but...............
