Pining for a berry?


Hybrid fruits are pretty much common place in todays supermarkets. From the random breeds of apples to the veggies you can't pronounce, they make for a $100 million dollar business in the U.S.
Something relatively new, however, was brought to my attention by Slashfood, a blog based in the U.K. Check out the article that discusses the Pineberry... yeah, the crazy white berries in the photo!
Sadly, it seems they're only available across the pond. Hopefully soon we'll see these at Loblaws.

For the record, this was an April Fool's joke...
