218/366 | American Cherries

Those used to be villainized in Japan, because they were destroying the Japanese cherry farmers. I remember feeling loyal to the smaller, yellow-ish, less sweet (but tasty nevertheless) Japanese cherries, but not being able to help loving the big, red, and sweet (and much cheaper) American cherries. I kept it quiet though, at home, since my parents were very vocal about protecting Japanese farmers from free international trades.
