I have a picture cherry-picking in San Diego, California when I was less than five years old. I ate a few pieces of these in the Philippines last year when my sister's boyfriend came home from HongKong (or maybe Japan, I forgot where). On rare ocassions, they were sold in one of the malls in Makati and in Chinatown for Php 300 for one-fourth a kilo.
Luckily, it's in season here in Luxembourg! Last week, I requested my dear husband to bring home some and here's a picture. They didn't taste like the cherry flavor of cough syrups, chapstick or lipstick because those taste more like cherries that come in bottles and are soaked in syrup. These tasted subtle, the kind that make you never stop eating in search for the flavor. In any case, I found them refreshing, a refreshing break from our usual banana, apple, pear, and ocassional strawberry and grape fruit repertoire at home.
