<p>We all have had this discussion before re: GFs.
MOST–that is greater than 50% and probably close to 90%–teenaged boys have only one thought in mind when presented with chocolate-covered strawberries. They want to get past the chocolate and straight to the berry.</p>
<p>Given the significant obstacles between mids and their berries, I am not convinced there is any good that comes out of even *thinking * about how sweet berries can be.</p>
<p>THEN, even if one is able to enjoy the berry, the heartburn that arises should the berry be spoiled . . . well, you know how delicate strawberries can be. Having to tend to their moisture requirements, trying to ignore bruises, looking after special packaging requirements, having to find a place to store the berries when not in use, and whatnot [not to mention being surrounded by some pretty sweet berries right there on the yard], well, its better to just go to the mall and shop.</p>
