Cherries, Strawberries, Red currants

Probably last day of deal today before new catalogue tomorrow. Some people won’t like the red currants, but I do.

Please insert typical frozen fruit commentary below:
Hep A!
Country of origin?!?!
Carbon footprint!
I don’t like currants!
Fresh is better!
These organic berries at $60/kg are far better in my opinion
Why isn’t everyone growing their own berries?
(Did I miss anything?)

  They often say "packed in.." but not where they come from. Which is bugga

    Yep our elected officials can be thanked for that.
    You would think the " farmers " party aka LNP would fix that.

    Trouble is they are more for big biz or mining corps.

    ALP/GREENS No better.

      Insider here, this usually means the following

      • The strawberries are primarily from Mexico
      • Cherries are primarily from Chile
      • The Red Currants is a bit of a crap shoot. Some from New Zealand, some from Chile. Before the Russian invasion of Ukraine, most of it came via Russia.

  Wouldn't bother with this unless you like red currants/have a use for them , it's like 90% red currants with a few of the other stuff.

  Ignorant of the red currants topic - has there been issues?
  I was going to get few bags for smoothies

    Following for this. In the past there have been contamination with frozen fruits, they mostly come from Indonesia

    I don’t think there’s a specific issue with currants more broadly than any other frozen fruit. I think it’s more that not everyone likes currants and therefore don’t find this to be a good value product for them even when half price. Frozen fruit in general there has been Hep A outbreaks from time to time where these are processed in hep A endemic countries. Because people eat them raw it’s more of an issue than say frozen vegetables.
