I now don't eat blueberries.

I feel the same way about strawberries. bending over and picking the damn things to hours at a time for 3.20 a flat (8 pints) mind you I was eating just as many as i was putting away so that slowed me down a lot. back breaking labour let me tell you. If you've never picked strawberries before the plants grow only a few inches off the ground. stupid strawberries. Haven't touched them in 12 years
