There's nothing like the REAL thing!!! This might be easy but I bet it tastes inferior to those who go the extra mile!

Thanks for sharing.
Btw, for those worried about "chemical-laden" foods, what do you think is on those berries you're buying from other countries? Something to think about..........

Sounds good and I like easy!! I've never heard of imitation strawberry flavoring. I guess you would find it with vanilla and other things to bake with. Thanks.

I agree. I'll stick to my own recipe made with REAL strawberries. Thanks for the recipe anyway.. but I'll certainly pass on this one.

Aren't all imitation flavors all chemicals? Isn't there a real one?
