Shack - Well, you're lucky. Take my situation here in California. I live a spit and a holler away from the San Joaquin Valley, where tons of fruits and vegies are grown. But the supermarket produce guys tell me the tomatoes they sell are shipped in from elsewhere (usually hard as rocks). Ditto for lots of the fruit. Only at roadside stands, in season, can you get decent stuff. And last year we found a type of grape at a stand that was to die for. Never saw it in the markets. California is beginning (?) to suck big time. R
