Strawberries that work!

At the weekend, I bought a special-offer two-pack of British strawberries from Tesco. For the first time in years, I have been eating strawberries that work properly. By which I mean you can grab hold of the spider[*] and pull, and a neat little white core of strawberry just comes straight out.

Hurray!


[*] by which I mean the calyx, by which I mean the green leafy bit at the top.

I've no idea - probably (as suggested by shui_long below) that non-working varieties grow better mass-produced, or are more usual in the forn parts from which we import masses of strawberries.
