The fruits you posted are mostly from the tropics, i bet they airlifted them because of their perishability, and then they are already very expensive there. Those custard apple, my favorite is very perishable and blackens fast due to handling, i guess they are not as nice anymore as those we have here. Even if it's my favorite, i don't like them with those qualities anymore! I wonder what country your family were before transfering to Canada!Andreahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06044386271018560595noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2031104025333175455.post-75120720346745837622012-10-04T09:13:44.362-04:002012-10-04T09:13:44.362-04:00You've mentioned two things that I'd forgo...You've mentioned two things that I'd forgotten I liked and are out of reach here; corned beef sandwiches and pekin duck.
