We went blackberry picking today, I was expecting a couple of manky blackberries to be left because I hear so often in the media and on mumsnet people saying how they struggle to feed their dc healthy food and sometimes people saying they have a hard time finding enough money to feed their dc at all.
There was a huge amount of blackberries, we were a 20 min walk outside a major city so an easily accessible place for 1000s of families.
We picked 9 pounds of blackberries.
Aibu to think that it would be a good idea for those struggling to feed their family a healthy diet (and those struggling to feed their family at all) should be out picking the free fruit that grows all over England's public spaces?

AIBU?
to wonder why there are blackberries going bad whilst people complain that they don't have enough money to feed their family healthy food.
