Canned strawberries

Is this real? I've never heard of canned strawberries.

Wat? No, canned mushrooms are the absolute worst.

I like canned corn, and canned green beans (French cut only), and I eat those pretty infrequently. I've never eaten canned potatoes, and just the thought of them makes my stomach turn a little bit.

Is this real? I've never heard of canned strawberries.

Yep, and they are both awful and awesome at the same.

So mushy...good for a dessert I suppose.

Cant say I buy much tinned fruit and veg...Fresh or frozen.

I'm like Karen, I like canned foods and had to stop out of obligation, not because I didn't enjoy them.

But I've never had canned potatoes.

But I've been wanting to try them and have been thinking of canning my own for some time. I can (jar) green beans. They are so good.

I buy canned tomatoes for cooking and sometimes canned sweetcorn and pineapple. I used to like canned strawberries, mandarin oranges and fruit cocktail. Very 1980's.

Are you even allowed to buy canned potatoes in Idaho? I would think that's some sort of punishable offense.

 

[hungryraccoon]

The only canned food I have is beans, tomatoes, occasionally sweetcorn & occasionally pineapple rings. Have never tried any other canned fruit/veg! Sounds gross

 

[Digger]

I think a lot of folks buy canned fruits (cherries and the like) for pie-making and other recipes where mushy isn't so much a detriment.

I love tinned pears. I have a tin for breakfast

I have my preferences, but there are very few things in this world I won't eat because of taste. Ethics or health maybe, but nothing really grosses me out.

I've paid dearly for my potato-related crimes, but I will not yield!

 

[Wolfie]

Canned potatoes should be illegal. Not fond of most canned veg and fruits actually but canned potatoes are puke-worthy.

 

[Cerebellion]

I simply cannot get into or remotely like The Walking Dead. Comic or TV show

Potato-related crimes are apparently the worst you can experience in Idaho... I feel you, babe.

Same here. I like trying new and unusual foods. The only food I can think of that really bothers me is banana peppers (a.k.a. sandwich ruiners). But I can still eat them if I have to.

I think Armond White is a good film critic who gets falsely labeled a troll/contrarian. Even when he lambasts movies I like, he usually makes some interesting points.

Whoa.

 

[cornsail]

Whooa, whoa, whoa horsey.

The majority of the "funny" videos that people show me on Youtube aren't entertaining at all. The most recent one that comes to mind is the Gangnam style thing. I just don't get it.

Similarly, a delightful get-together with friends automatically shifts into shittiness when someone drags out the laptop to show everyone That One Video on Youtube. And it never stops after just one video. After that, it's "Have you seen the one with the grape stomping lady?" and "Oh we have to watch the one with the talking dog." On and on it goes. Endless cats falling off chairs, guys doing skateboard tricks, mean pranks, stupid people doing stupid dances...

I just assumed that it was really, really catchy.
