My experience has always been that store-bought flavour is worse than home-grown
I think it only makes sense; industrial farming is quantity over quality
Home-grown is the opposite
Have you ever tried a home-grown banana? I never have, but I'm sure it would blow my socks off
I agree, home grown is best. My parents had a fruit tree alorchard and a fairly extensive vegetable garden so I grew up with food produce. Now I have my own, just on a smaller scale.
I'm not a huge fan of bananas but lived for a while in the tropical north of Australia and they grow them there, avocado, mango and so on also. So good. But what we get in supermarkets these days is just rubbish, most of it anyway.
It's sad but true. I'm looking forward to the day I can grow my own vegetables!
