I love cherries. I first got to taste cherries when I was in Australia studying. I love it ever since. I used to carry a big box back every time I come home for holidays. Cherries have a very short life span after it is pluck. You cannot really keep them very long, it will go bad. It is one of the reasons why it is so expensive in Malaysia.
When I was in US, I was so happy to see cherries. It is selling 1.28 per lb. It is so cheap and yummy. I bought 2 lb right away. If I get it here, it will be RM10 for probably 20 cherries.
I managed to loot another 6 lb back from Costco to carry home to Malaysia. I gave half to my in laws and the rest were gone within a few days. If only we can plant cherries here, I will have a garden of it. If anyone coming here from US, bring me cherries!
I love cherries too!!! But here so so expensive!
