An influencer on TikTok has a video where she ate a $19 strawberry at a posh market in Beverly Hills. She says it's from Japan, and, quote, "Apparently it's the best tasting strawberry in the entire world."
It comes out on a circular tray, with a plastic top around it . . . kinda like it's a snowglobe.
For what it's worth, this random influencer approves . . . saying it's the best strawberry she's EVER had in her WHOLE life.
Granted it is a huge strawberry..but come on.

Today's Useless Fact of the Day - The cheeseburger was invented in 1926 at a restaurant called the Rite Spot in Pasadena, California. The owner's 16-year-old son randomly threw cheese onto a patty on the grill. Then they added it to their menu, and called it a "cheese hamburger."
