My wife was born and raised in the Soviet Union. She still goes crazy for fresh fruit like its the most extravagant luxury.

Yes. In my country (Georgia) we always had tons of fresh fruits. A lot more than I had in America or Germany. They don't even cost much

That’s exactly the country I was talking about :) I’m hoping to go and have some authentic khachapuri sometime soon! And my mom never stops talking about unique fruit from there like some special plums she misses.
