All I can say is I would not buy them again. Oh, that’s right, I didn’t buy them in the first place. Laura did. They were pretty and tasted fresh but I couldn’t describe the flavor. Not strawberry.
“Pineberry is a hybrid cross from Fragaria chiloensis and Fragaria virginiana.[1] A pineberry is smaller than a common strawberry, measuring between 15 to 23 mm (0.6 to 0.9 in). When ripe, it is almost completely white, but with red achenes (the seeds). The plant is disease-resistant, and highly priced, although not profitable due to small-scale farming, small berry size and low yield.[2]” Wikipedia
I have seen Pineberries in a gourmet food store. Now I know all about them. Thanks Ruth.
I’ve never seen them, so was so glad you shared this.
I’ve seen them never bought them. But I wondered what they taste like!
I have never seen nor heard about this fruit. Given their looks, I’m not sure I would purchase them. Glad to hear I’m not missing out. 🙂
I’ve never heard of these. Good to know that you didn’t like them, should I ever spot them here in a Minnesota grocery store.
They look like albino strawberries. Not sure if I would trust them for some reason.
I was not too impressed with the pineberry either. I was expecting it to taste like pineapple or something.
