I dont know if its me looking back with rose coloured glasses or getting old and loosing my taste buds or just crap memory but I'm getting fed up with the taste or should I say lack of taste of most produce sold today.
Just purchased a bunch of avocados and they are really hit or miss, not in ripeness but taste and all round flavour.
Other than the the giant thumb marks where dumb numbnuts press all over them this batch are impossible to peel, they are ripe, the flesh is full of little gritty brown specs and they taste horrible. my usual method of eating them is peeled and diced and tossed in very hot chilli vinegar salt and pepper, this didnt hide the appalling flavour. up to three so far in this batch, also had this problem before.
Bananas, tasteless cardboard pap, my bananas are awesomely sweet and taste like you know---bananas.
Apples, big, red, juicy, crisp, very little taste.
Chicken, beef, have little taste, pork is pumped so full of water it pours out when cooked and often tastes of the food stock they were fed.
Potatoes so full of sugar you cant get a crispy fry, on and on and on.
Lets not get started on processed foods, why do producers add sugar to beef and chicken stock, and cabbage, eh!
I think I should stop now and fry some awesome tasting tomatoes from my aquaponics system.

We got to talking and he asked this question . Would you want to pay monthly for water that is basicly refurbished treated **** water from the city ? I taste treated water and think I'm in a pool with the chlorine taste and whatever the heck else they put in it . I can drink the water straight out of the ground in the Adirondacks and feel safe about doing so . I'm with you sav , I'll stick to my beer .
