I LOVE red raspberries and will eat them fresh off the vine or eat the ones sold in the local grocery store. BUT, I don't like anything flavored with artificial raspberry flavoring. People tell me it's the same flavor but it doesn't taste like it to me! Do you like raspberries and do you like artificial raspberry flavored foods? Raspberries. Photo is mine.

I love fresh raspberries. If I had to pick a fruit flavor raspberry would be up at the top of my list.

Hmm... I don't know why I don't like it as a flavoring, but I don't.

Same as you and I also hate strawberry flavoring, because it's "fake" it's not true that it's the same flavor, not at all.

I like strawberry flavoring as well as real strawberries. I don't know why I don't like raspberry flavoring.

I don’t think I’ve had a lot of raspberry flavored things besides maybe ice cream. I did just get this raspberry flavored chocolate that tastes as close to real raspberries than I’ve ever had. I only had two pieces because I’m not into chocolate, but everyone I give it to always asks where I got it from (someone gave it to me). But there is nothing like fresh raspberries.

Well, fresh raspberries have their own natural sweetness but raspberry flavoring is mostly just sugar...

When l drank milkshakes l always chose strawberry flavors. Now l do not use any flavored beverages. I would prefer the natural fruit.

True, natural fruit is the best flavoring but I will still enjoy some artificial flavorings but not raspberry.

It depends on what watermelon flavoring is in whether I'll like it or not. Some drinks are okay but not in tea.

I think I like them okay and I like raspberry flavoring. I don't like tomatoes at all but I like ketchup and tomato sauce. Go figure!

That is odd... Do you like yellow tomatoes? They have a different flavor profile and aren't as acidic at red tomatoes.
