Farmers in the Netherlands grow an unusual white strawberry with a pineapple flavor. The strawberry is much smaller than the familiar red variety and has small red seeds all over its surface.
The exotic strawberry was found in the wild in South America, and Dutch farmers saved it from extinction. The variety is called Pineberries, which in English is a combination of the words pineapple and strawberry.
In the beginning, the unusual fruit is green, and after ripening it begins to turn white and acquire the strong aroma of pineapple. However, the South American fruit resembles the familiar red strawberry.
However, the white variety is smaller and tastes sweet and sour and is juicier than ordinary strawberries. The size of the white strawberry is between 15 and 33 millimeters.
The Dutch farm that inspects them is Beckers Beris, and farmers say they have been cultivating the unusual variety for 11 years.
White strawberries are thought to be a hybrid between the South American strawberry Fragaria chiloensis, found in some wild areas of Chile, and the North American red temptation Fragaria virginiana.
According to their biological origin, they are identical to ordinary strawberries and belong to the same species Fragaria Ananassa.
Strawberries can be eaten fresh, served with yogurt or ice cream, used to decorate desserts and drinks.
The unusual variety was first launched on the market by the British supermarket chain Waitrose. This is not the first time Waitrose has surprised its customers with unusual strawberries.
In 2008, the retail chain launched the so-called strasberri - a hybrid between strawberries and raspberries. And 2 years later, during the Wimbledon tennis tournament, Waitrose offered its customers strawberry-flavored sausage.
The white strawberry first appeared in Europe in the 18th century, but to date it is threatened with extinction. Because of their strange appearance, they are often associated with the strawberries from the movie Alice in Wonderland by director Tim Burton.
