Look at this massive strawberry
By
This is the biggest strawberry I have ever seen! It was in a pack from Lidl which had a lot of large strawberries in it. It’s almost as big as my mobile phone (as you can see). And no, I didn’t do any photoshopping, this is unedited Ripley’s believe it or not stuff here.
Amazed? I was – tasted nice too 
Not as big as the biggest strawberry ever. That honour goes to a strawberry grown by a Mr. Anderson in Folkestone, Kent in England. His strawberry weighed 8.17 ounces and was grown in 1983. It’s a record breaker.
“Dedication, dedication
Dedication, that’s what you need
If you wanna be the best
If you wanna beat the rest
Oh-oh dedication’s what you need;
If you wanna be a record break-er, Oooooh.”
Couldn’t find a clip of Roy Castle singing that. Loved Record Breakers as a kid.

I didn’t eat it, my nephew snaffled it out of the fridge soon after I took the photo. I was devastated!
Nothing better than Strawberries is there Grannymar? Can’t wait for the first crop of home grown ones. I shouldn’t have bought the ones in Lidl as they had “air miles”, but I don’t do it often so I felt ok.

That’s bad
You could have put it on display and made a fortune…probably.
