Christmas starts early!!! 🥰
Kay and I received a wonderful gift from Deb and Curtis! 💗
The package is from 'The Fruit Company' and contains an assortment of pears and apples plus some chocolate covered cherries and two Toffee Truffle bars. There was also a pretzel covered in white chocolate, but we can not show you that because we already ate it! (notice the empty box in pix #2)
Thank you Deb and Curtis... we Love you, and Merry Christmas to you and all of our Family. 🥰🤩🥳

That looks yummy Ken.

Never heard of that company. Will have to check them out.

I've seen fruit like that covered with that white wrapping. Maybe in the stores?

Tried one of the pears and an apple, both were delicious!

In recent years I have become more and more dissatisfied with apples from the grocery stores, they always seem to still unripe too the extreme, so I had my doubts about the apples in this package, but they are just right and very tasty.

The pick them unripe so they last longer on the shelves and there's less change to spoilage and them having to throw them away.

You need to either buy them from the grocery stores early and learn how to quickly ripen them OR go to the farmer's markets and they might be what you want.
