I am a new convert, was always rather suspicious of them. I have bought two lots so far, 3 for £1 and 4 for £1, the first were better, evenly ripe, tasty, but not as tasty as proper peaches, or nectarines.....much easier to eat though. Go compare! prices, experiencs, new fruit.....

Diogenes Aug 2016 8:32pm, 14 Aug 2016 16,609 posts	0 Diogenes Or rather, do the flat ones differ in any way other than shape? Mrs D has been buying them but I haven't had one yet. I'm not much of a one for fruit.
