Or could be a different type. Maybe I will look it up.suzyhomemakerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13463942753416462607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7867059395798987331.post-32438335395817844222013-06-11T15:59:34.883-04:002013-06-11T15:59:34.883-04:00I thought something was wrong with the berries I g...I thought something was wrong with the berries I grew...then I tasted them and they were so good. Just smaller and a deeper red. The curious thing is even the organic non-modified berries at the fresh markets and farmer's markets seem really big by comparison.

They are not really sweet. suzyhomemakerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13463942753416462607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7867059395798987331.post-1360121338622076882013-06-11T10:02:02.434-04:002013-06-11T10:02:02.434-04:00What a surprise to see the comparison of the wild ...What a surprise to see the comparison of the wild vs. the regular ones! The color is so much more vivid too! Since I've never had a wild strawberry, I'm wondering if they taste the same or is there a difference?
