SwanR Posted June 13, 2020 Share Posted June 13, 2020 I'll have to look out for those as I'm using Morrison's for most of my shopping at the moment. Last week I ordered strawberries but didn't realise what a large size I had bought until I unpacked the delivery. Still got some in the fridge but they're keeping well. I have been using a local greengrocery delivery service as well and they had some delicious strawberries which came from Holland. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poppy Posted June 13, 2020 Share Posted June 13, 2020 'Wonky' strawberries at Morisons work out to be substantially more expensive per kilo than the rest . It's the same in Aldi. Clever marketing or sharp practice ? You decide. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unclemike Posted June 13, 2020 Author Share Posted June 13, 2020 as usual you miss the obvious, we buy quality not quantity, good succulent wonky strawberries are better to eat than the great big ones , so if they are dearer its well worth it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CambridgeCabby Posted June 13, 2020 Share Posted June 13, 2020 Tesco’s also do a “perfectly imperfect” range of strawberries and they are delicious and vfm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YnysMon Posted June 14, 2020 Share Posted June 14, 2020 Can’t beat wonky allotment strawberries though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveO Posted June 14, 2020 Share Posted June 14, 2020 We don't mind "wonky" fruit and veg at all. Have had apples, oranges, strawberries and carrots with the "wonky" designation and in many instances we were wondering why they were so classified. It might be my imagination or my Yorkshire tightness of wallet, but I think a lot of the "wonky" stuff tastes better than the ridiculously wasteful and overpriced "A1" products.

grendel Posted June 15, 2020 Share Posted June 15, 2020 quite happy with the flavour from my non regulation size and shaped raspberries from the garden at the moment Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cal Posted June 15, 2020 Share Posted June 15, 2020 We get all of our fruit and veg from a local farm shop. It comes in whatever shape it has grown, is almost never the "perfect" shape and tastes so much better than supermarket bought veg. It is also much cheaper then the supermarket.
