Bing Cherries Does anybody love them as much as myself? It's ashame that they're only in the stores here in the Midwest for 2 weeks, wish it could be longer. Cracks me up that they're called "Bing" cherries, makes me think of the late Bing Crosby.
RIP, mom. I will forever miss and love you. | |

Just read on the web, a cupful of cherries is only 91 calories! That's pretty darn good. RIP, mom. I will forever miss and love you. | |

I haven't tried those cherries, but I do like the kind in the jars that are used mainly for desserts...Maraschino cherries. I'm waiting for a sexual joke about cherries to enter this thread. looking for you in the woods tonight Switch FC SW-2874-2863-4789 (Rum&Coke) | |

That would be me and my family. I buy sometimes $20 worth at a time. you know those pre-filled produce bags are about $12 worth, and I will buy 3 of those.
I figure you only get them once a year and it is better than eating candy, and taste a lot better too. "Remember, one man's filler is another man's killer" -- Haystack | |

I love cherries... Bing are good, but I love, love, love Rainier Cherries!
When I was growing up, out in the sticks, and old man used to stand by the road and sell Rainer's. We used to always stop and buy loads of them, because it was difficult to find them in the stores... still is, and when you can find them they are expensive! | |

When creating this thread, the very same thought entered my mind, that was why I made sure to include the word "Bing" in the title. RIP, mom. I will forever miss and love you. | |

Never tried the Rainer cherries, but have seen them in the store. Do they have the same flavor as the Bings? RIP, mom. I will forever miss and love you. | |

I had a cherry once. I lost it on the 16th floor of the Hyatt REgency Hotel in downtown Lexington, KY, to a man 17 years my senior.
But if we must talk food, I don't like them unless they're maraschino, in that jar you know, with the syrup. "I wrote down a dream, folded the note, slipped it in the pocket of my tattered coat, I wrote down a dream, in invisible ink, it never was mine I'm beginning to think..." | |
