Preservatives?

by StacyRug

I visited their store on Bell Road and they wouldn't let me into the back where they cut the fruit. Kinda makes me suspicious about what they're doing back there. And I wonder what kind of preservatives they're using on that fruit. Seems to me after they cut it, and it sits out in the 100+ degree heat, well, it has to have SOMETHING on it to protect it, even if they refrigerate it. I left there thinking it would be much safer for my family if I order fresh fruit (whole fresh fruit) in a gift basket from a local gift basket shop. Not something shipped and not something cut up. Just my impression.

• Pros: Pretty enough, but I'm concerned
• Cons: I'm wondering what preservatives they use

Very nice touch

by candycat9

For my mother's 70th birthday, one of my aunt's had brought a beautiful arrangements for the centerpiece. We all admired it as flowers, until we realized we could eat it! It was so beautiful, fragrant and juicy that it didn't even last until the end of the party! We had devoured it before all the rest of the food was gone! It was the nicest gift and the nicest touch to the party!

• Pros: beautiful, friendly staff, fragrant, flavorful
