Being from America, my understanding of cherries is the sugary cherries that come with your Coco-cola. To be honest, I don't like those at all. I tried one of those when I was little, and since then I have avoided all cherries. I thought they made your teeth feel like they were rotting. However, after yesterday my ideas of cherries has been forever changed.
Yesterday, while at my part time job, a package arrived from a place called Jackson's Orchard. I got to open it; and to my surprise it was full of fresh picked cherries and a Christmas card. It was a company Christmas gift. So, at morning tea time (yes this is a normal New Zealand company policy) I decided I had to try a cherry. Everyone else was digging in and saying how good they were. So, timidly I bit onto one. The flavor was amazing, so fresh, juicy, and sweet. Yum! For all those of you who come visit New Zealand, you must try the cherries!
