I grow up in California and for all it's fruits California did not grow very good berries. Something about needing the cold. Blueberries especially were bitter and tasteless. Then I went to New Jersey, the Garden State (or Garbage State, some from some parts would call it) and my host at dinner brought this pie with funny-looking black things inside. It was so great. "What kind of pie is this?" Blueberries. Mouth dropped open and never looked back.
