Goldenbead Posted August 9, 2005 Share Posted August 9, 2005 I dont' know about cherries grown in Thailand but I have seen imported ones in Phuket at Central. So expensive, it is not worth even looking at them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chownah Posted August 11, 2005 Share Posted August 11, 2005 In Mae Sai they have them in season grown locally but they taste more like plums than cherries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thaibebop Posted August 11, 2005 Share Posted August 11, 2005 I have heard that they aren't that good, this from my wife. My mother-in-law always takes bags of them back home when she visits in season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moo Dohn Posted August 12, 2005 Share Posted August 12, 2005 (edited) I have never seen them for sale outside bangkok.Are there any orchards in Thailand? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> In big markets... and expensive... It's WAY TOO hot in Thailand for Cherry Trees... They like temperate zones, like Door County Wisconsin... Same thing for most varieties of Apples, Pears, etc. Edited August 12, 2005 by Moo Dohn 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

think_too_mut Posted August 12, 2005 Share Posted August 12, 2005 When I saw cherries on sale in Lotus, they were 800B per tray. Maybe the tray was 300g. Next time, I brought some from Tokyo. Same price, on sale, not Japanese but American import. My gf has never had tasted cherries before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A Thai could/would never do that. confused. Exactly who took your cherry? She didn't say antone took her cherry. If they haven't Bamnina, can I have it?

Thaicoon Posted August 31, 2005 Share Posted August 31, 2005 They sell them in Chinatown, Bangkok, in the market, and they are the nicest i have tasted, but expensive at 500 baht per kilo. bought some last week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aughie Posted August 31, 2005 Share Posted August 31, 2005 (edited) They grow cherries in my area. The very best get shipped overseas. But early in the season you can buy direct at the orchards and get some fine ones at 225b/kilo Edited August 31, 2005 by aughie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
p_brownstone Posted August 31, 2005 Share Posted August 31, 2005 I have a Cherry tree in my garden here in Bangkok which gives a lot of fruit but they're so bitter they would pucker your every orifice (that's a "P" there OK chaps). The Bulbuls love them however. Patrick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aughie Posted September 1, 2005 Share Posted September 1, 2005 Bitter cherries are for canning and pies. ummmm cherry pie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sbk Posted September 3, 2005 Share Posted September 3, 2005 Cherries are also very good for gout. My dad swears by them, he used to have pretty bad gout attacks and has found that when he feels one coming on he just eats alot of cherries and it goes away. My father-in-law could do with some, he has terrible gout and we have always wanted to get him fresh cherries. Where in Thailand are you Aughie? and when is the season?

aughie Posted September 5, 2005 Share Posted September 5, 2005 sbk - Sorry the orchards are in California and the season is July-August. Do you have a Costco warehouse foodmart? They sell dried cherries year round. Wish I could be of greater help. -a Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
