If we talk about preferences in the field of fruits, fruits and berries, then, probably, I would give preference to those that do not have a seed.
Probably the biggest, fruity fiasco is when you eat tangerines or amelsins, you look forward to enjoying their juicy pulp without any interference, but in every slice you expose a bone, lol.
At times like this, I feel betrayed.
Even, in a juicy raspberry, there are a lot of small bones that will try to get deeper between the teeth and, instead of continuing to enjoy it, you should arm yourself with a toothpick.
I think that whoever breeds a seedless raspberry variety will become a very rich person.
But, these are the thoughts of a person who has something to choose between.
If you live in conditions. unsuitable for growing berry crops in your garden and the only place where you can pick berries is the forest, then, I am sure, even a very picky person will be grateful to God for his forest gifts, with or without seeds.
On a postage stamp with a face value of 10 kopecks of the USSR, issued in 1982, we see one of these wild berries called Stone Bramble (Rubus saxatilis).
This berry contains a rather large bone, but this does not stop people who have placed their hopes on it.
Stone Bramble is consumed fresh, made into jams and even made into wine.
It’s hard for me to imagine how such a huge harvest can be harvested in the forest to make wine, I just know how many grapes go into one two hundred liter barrel, lol.
But perhaps this wine is heavily diluted with water and sugar syrup.
