$1.49 at Aldi but I never shop there. $3.99 at Publix. I wish I hadn’t bought 2 pounds of tasteless cherries. They’re juicy, but very little flavor. The bag says Washington state.

Vons (Safeway) in Southern California has them this week at $1.88/lb. Bought 4.25 lbs yesterday and the ones I tested were quite acceptable.

Tough job with all those pits.
I found a sealed pouch of bings on the shelf today at Trader Joes, They were in a opaque bag so I felt them through the lining and yup they had the pits in them

One local store had cherries for 97 cents a pound last week, but had a 2 pound limit.
Costcos 3 pound clamshells have been good quality, lately. $8.99, I think.

We stopped at an Aldi in central Connecticut on the first day of the sale and were quite pleased with the quality of the sale cherries (from Washington State, IIRC). In general, we find their produce to be decent.
We own one of these and it works as advertised.

We use the Swiss Cherry pitter. We even brought it on our trip because we brought about 3 pounds total of cherries. I still prefer to pit them within my mouth. I don’t use the pit tools.

Just remember Miss Manners says remove the pit from your mouth with your fingers. Dont spit them onto the plate (or across the room).
