I found this intersting article on the New Jersey Blueberry industry.
What does everyone think?

Blueberry growers expect another fruitful year (http://thepacker.com/icms/_dtaa2/content/wrapper.asp?alink=2008-121129-552.asp&stype=specialreports&fb - broken link)=

Yes, My wife and I are growing tomatos, basil, zuccinni and carrots. Love the Jersey Tomatoes.
And The Blueberries do make a great pie.

I moved from NJ 1.5 years ago and it's funny when I go to the supermarket in SC, they have produce that says NJ on it. It's great!

Its not the taste... its the texture! Its all wrong...

Corn is ok, carrots (raw only), potatos, and crispy lettuce (nothing leafy, and I mean nothing). Thats about it.

The rest work as ingredients for me to add flavor, but I can't eat them, makes me gag!

That's so funny, that is the way I feel about shellfish. I just can't eat shrimp, lobster or crab due to the texture of the meat. I love most types of fish though, mussels, calamari and clams too.

Aw, man... I love the fresh produce. I just love pulling off a wayward highway to buy some fresh fruit and veg.

That means no shortages of Blueberry Morning cereal. My favorite!

I'm with the non-vegetable eaters. Corn, potatoes and green beans are as far as I'll go.
