I like cherries just as they are... Yum. I grew up with a black cherry tree in my yard and it was great. I don't like cherry pie or anything like that. I think because everytime I've ever had it, it was made with the syrupy canned cherries.

Thanks for the reply. There is no question fresh cherries are better in pies than canned cherries. I prefer to use fresh whenever possible.

I like cherries a lot. I remember being at my father's house for the first time when I was like eight years old and having some cherries. I like black cherry ice cream a lot. I love cherry cheesecake. Cherries are my favorite topping on cheesecake. Cherry pie and cherry crisp/cobbler are good things to make with cherries. Yum!

Thanks for posting. I sure enjoy warm cherry cobbler. I might use some the cherries to make it.

I just bought a bag of cherries at the grocery store the other day. I haven't had them in so long and they looked so good. Well, they cost almost 6 dollars for that little bag! I am eating them slowly... lol. I don't like to make anything out of them! I just like to eat them as they are. Delicious.

Its so terrible to see how much we now spend to eat correctly. I am not thrilled to see good food go up. Last week, I watched a young mother trying to figure out which fruit was a good deal and watch her 2 little ones at the store. I went over and asked the produce man to help the young woman. She was amazed that another customer noticed her.
I went to the apple area and the produce man told us about each of the apples. Her little daughter handed me a bag and she held a bag, as we selected apples. It was good to see her face light up, as she picked out some apples. I really enjoyed shopping that day.
Thanks for the reply.

They never get that far. We eat them right from the fridge!!!

I'm funny about cherries. While I love them fresh, I hate them cooked in anything! LOL So I will buy a ton when they are on sale, but I will only eat them fresh. :O)

I love cherries! When I was a kid, we had two cherry trees in the backyard. One had tart cherries good for pies. The other was sweet cherries.
I'm like the other commenters. I like to just eat them. Can't wait to see if someone gives you some good recipes, though.

I lived on a farm as a child and we had an orchard. We had cherries, plums, peaches and pears in large numbers. We would freeze fruit. I should have purchased a large freezer, as my little one is full. Thanks for the reply.
