    Just had two peaches of total and utter perfection.

    Still firm to the touch, yet melting in my mouth, sweet, juicy, dripping perfection.

    Life can be good sometimes.

    Flat or round and where did you get them? I love searching for good fruit!

    Hairy peaches?

    He said perfect peaches so they must have been round :)

    Flat ones just aren’t as nice or juicy.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,584 ✭✭✭✭ILoveYourVibes


    I wonder where the best peaches in Ireland are!

    There is a grocer around the back of us that has such good fruit.

    We only have flat peaches right now.

    oh you are so WRONG!!

    The fuzzy flat doughnut peaches just drip the honeyed goodness. And they are easier to eat, too.

    (but for purest fruitful perfection, the king, queen and epitome of celestial fruits is a perfect mango)

    There is also a market on the weekends in a park just by us that has an organic market. Gonna try and get some peaches there.

    I thought it would be a cool idea to put some fruit in the pot of an orchid on the kitchen table that was a moving-in gift. Well, the orchid died. The peaches killed it. It turns out, peaches (and all fruits, I think) emit a gas, ethyne, which wilts flowers.

    Wow, I sure do tell exciting stories.

    I prefer nectarines myself. No fuzz. Easier to eat out.

    Ethylene. I think it's something of a plant hormone. Some fruits emit more...bananas and apples, for example. Want to ripen fruit faster? Stick it in a paper bag with bananas or apples.

    Last time I had a peach, my face broke out in a burning rash. Which was unpleasant.

    Wait hold on. Is this thread actually about fruit?

    And they didn't go off? Find them very hit and miss with fruit.

    Aren't Nectarines just Brazilian peaches.

    Tesco do a 6 pack of doughnut peaches for €1. They're lovely. Their pineapple on the other hand went in the bin this morning because it never ripened and when I cut into it this morning, it was going mouldy yet was still hard. Horrible. Aldi do lovely pineapples, but you do have to eat them within a couple of days.
