This native Midwesterner does not understand why having lots of fresh fruit in your fridge is considered unhealthy.

[danalwyn]

You're supposed to have vegetables to, not just fruits. I like having lots of fruits, but I'm not exactly having a balanced diet here.

Fresh figs? Fresh figs are a glory and an Art in and of themselves. I also really love pears and blueberries. Ah, to live in a more "fruitful" clime than this! (Our native fruits are various Rubus species, wild apples, serviceberry/saskatoon, and bearberries. Nothing like what you have, alas.

[danalwyn]

Yes, it is a much more fruitful clime down here. However, with the money you save by, well, not living here, you could probably have all these things flown directly to you with one day delivery. It's one of the reasons everyone wants to live here.

I am still celebrating the existence of a farmer's market with actual quantity here.
