Probably.

Sitranced · 10/06/2018 19:54

They're not made of geese so don't worry if you're vegetarian.

Flatearthersphere · 10/06/2018 19:55

No, I think YANBU.

MyKingdomForBrie · 10/06/2018 19:55

YABU to worry about them, just never think about them, they’re not worth the headspace.

iklboo · 10/06/2018 19:56

Are you worried they're lonely?

ThePinkOcelot · 10/06/2018 19:56

Are you drunk?!

NoSquirrels · 10/06/2018 19:56

Hairy sour balls. YANBU.

PositiveVibez · 10/06/2018 19:57

Do you mean the berry, or a third wheel?

KitXi · 10/06/2018 19:57

Me too. One of them looked shiftily at me three weeks ago and I haven't been quite the same since.

TheEmojiFormerlyKnownAsPrince · 10/06/2018 19:58

I worry because l don’t like them.Would this make them paranoid?

Maelstrop · 10/06/2018 19:58

Because you have too many? Because they’re sour?

StormcloakNord · 10/06/2018 19:59

YANBU.

I had a bad run in with one a few years ago & it scarred me for life.

The3 · 10/06/2018 19:59

Sorry, pressed post too early - I do worry about them being unwanted.

Don’t worry Goose and his berries were only acting on Top Gun

Lekky12 · 10/06/2018 20:00

WTAF?!

mmmgoats · 10/06/2018 20:01

YABU they never worry about you, I can assure you,

Littletreefrog · 10/06/2018 20:02

Ooh I like gooseberries but I agree most kids these days have probably never had one. Who do we write to?

missyB1 · 10/06/2018 20:06

YANBU I love them and miss them, I never see them anymore Sad

Oh for a gooseberry tart and custard! Oh and gooseberry jam on homemade bread (I’m drooling now).

The3 · 10/06/2018 20:08

Nobody wants them. When did you lady welcome a gooseberry into your home?

This very thread is running elsewhere. Many suggestions re fool, crumble and freezing them abound. Giving them away is an option. A guy at work used to bring in his excess vegetables. Snigger.

SparkwoodAnd21 · 10/06/2018 20:13

I’ve been dreaming of gooseberry ice cream lately. Does such a thing exist? I want it to.

BitOfFun · 10/06/2018 20:13

I'm growing gooseberries on my allotment. They're almost ready, and I CAN'T WAIT. Love them.

Theworldisfullofgs · 10/06/2018 20:14

I make gooseberry crumble ice cream...

iklboo · 10/06/2018 20:16

A guy in work asked us if we all wanted some of his big pink stick of rhubarb.

JaretsGirlfren · 10/06/2018 20:17

I never worried about this before but now I am Sad
