(in the Northern Hemisphere)
Grapes seem to be too early on the shelves. Their skin is thick, they aren't good. Not ripe.
Melons can be wonderful.
Mangos if left to ripen can be great.
Some of the cherries were really good, and cherry season is ending of course.
I'm throwing out nectarines that don't ripen properly, the grapes, the bad this and the bad that.
The other day I ate a bunch of those not-good grapes, and got a serotonin headache the next day. I think that's cause and effect, can't prove it but it seems like it.
Ditto with mangoes that I ate even though they weren't ripe (they were frozen actually, I should know better, they freeze and bag and sell unripe mangoes and unripe fruit as a rule. Requires cooking...)
I am not sure what I'll do when summer ends. I am really dependent on a lot of fruit these days but it has to be good and ripe fruit.
