I love blueberry pierogi this time of year, served with metled butter or sweet cream or confectioner's sugar and sour cream, but the ones we get in the States cannot compare with the Old World variety. Those are made with wild berries (czarna jagoda, czernica) which are much smaller than the American blueberries but less watery and more favourful. Anyone agree or disagree?
Anybody recall seeing li'l old babcias selling the jagody they've picked in a forest at Polish roadsides?

I remember in Warsaw once a lady was walking by the blocks yelling and selling "jagody! jagody! jagody!" and people would go and buy from her. You can make blueberry pie, blueberry waffles, blueberry muffins, blueberry yogurt, blueberry icecream, then you wonder why you have blueberry poop. Just like here in Wisconsin we have all these AYCE corn roasts where it's grilled or boiled then the toilets get plugged with corn poop.

I agree that polonius3 often sounds .... out of date, but he does have a point here. For my money on the whole fresh fruit grown and sold in Poland is better than any of the overprocessed and bland fruit I've had in the US. I just had some black cherries bought on the sidewalk of Warsaw that were amazing.

I'm just surprised that Polish people are so into blueberries (too papery and harsh around the edges for me) and not as fond of blackberries (jerzyny) as I am.
