[QUOTE="wev, post: 268058, member: 16783"] Actually the white strawberry is one of the oldest cultivated version of the fruit, originating in South America. They simply lack the protein Fragaria allergen, which is what turns a red strawberry red when it is ripe and also causes people with allergies to break out in hives.. It is common today in the UK and eastern US, but not grown much commercially, as it has a weak, watery flavor and does not ship well. There are a couple of cultivars from the alpine regions of Switzerland that have a better taste, but they require the cold climate and are sparse fruiting and small in size. [/QUOTE]
