There not that good. We get them everywhere here in Europe where fruit is appreciated more than deep fried everything.
Pretty much every supermarket has thm here in one of there fresh fruit isles.

not OP, but this should be obvious, strawberries have a different, softer, and less stringy texture.

have you ever eaten a strawberry?

Strawberries have one of the best textures of all fruits, and they aren't even fruits. I wanted to get pineberries too, when I heard about them, and the next time I am in amsterdam I will get them, smuggle them home, and grow some.

>nearly extinct
thats a blatant lie, the pineberry was only recently developed, and as it is farmed, and sold in stores, it is clearly not in danger of dying out.

How does it feel to feel so strongly about wrong opinions?

we have those in my garden. They taste nothing like pineapple and are pretty common. They taste more like sour strawberries.

That picture is full of lies. The berries are really common and not nearly close to extinct.

[Anonymous No.3841861]

why arent these exported to other countries?

[Anonymous No.3841867]

>>3841861
They are even grown domestically in the US? Just that as others mentioned they are essentially a less popular, sour, unpleasant variety of plain old strawberries. It's the same reason the pomewater along with the other "white" apple varities died out. Sour AND easily bruised shit and once fuji and the x-delicious and pink lady came out, nobody had a demand for them.

my bad, should have had mentioned i was australian, just wondering since uk, the us and europe seem to have them expect for us

[Anonymous No.3841877]

Australians like their berries less acidic and our quarantine takes 5 years of enclosed cultivation before the cultivars are cleared for agricultural use. We might get some imported from the US in the off season when they eventually offload their overproduction.

Just cultivate some hokowase in your windowsill, they're more pink/magenta than red to boot.

>our quarantine takes 5 years of enclosed cultivation before the cultivars are cleared for agricultural use.

is this for australian importers or us exporters? and is this under the 2002 bioterrorism act?

[Anonymous No.3841887]

>>3841882
1. For Australian importers who wish to grow the cultivar domestically. In the case of say, unripe strawberries/oranges/pomegranates being brought in from US and artificially ripened, there is very negligible chance of the seeds being fertile and able to be grown. Bringing in say, 100 stock seedlings, is another matter.

2. No, this is a much older policy instituted way before 2002 because escaped ornamental/agriculatural cultivars are raping the nation.

I like tart fruit so do want.
"The word “pineberry” is a fusion of the words “pineapple” and “strawberry” and refers to a relatively new pale pink or pale orange to white strawberry cultivar that is adorned with red achenes (see the Strawberry Seeds page for more information). Like the modern Garden Strawberry (Fragaria x ananassa), the pineberry is a hybrid of the wild South American strawberry Fragaria chiloensis, which grows wild in some parts of Chile, and the North American strawberry Fragaria virginiana. The pineberry fruit is the result of cross-breeding, not genetic engineering as has been claimed by some. There are actually multiple different types of white strawberries.

In fact, the specific strawberry variety whose genetics contribute to the striking appearance of the pineberry was “rescued” by a group of Dutch farmers. They discovered the source material in France. They did not find and rescue the pineberry from extinction in the wilds of Chile, as some have claimed. After six years of plant selection and cultivation, the plant vigor and quality of the pineberry plants was improved, and the decision to begin growing them for commercial production was made.

The fruit produced by pineberry plants is very aromatic and has flavor that most say is reminiscent of pineapple while retaining the texture and feel of a strawberry. The pineberry, or pineapple strawberry, is more of a novelty at present. They are produced on a very small scale in Europe and Belize and are not very profitable due to the small size of the pineberries (large pineberries are less than an inch [2.54 cm] big) and the low yield of pineberry plants." -http://strawberryplants.org/2010/09/pineberry-pineberries/
