As for stocking up? Nope, Just no...
It's quite easy to call the guest a moron. No fruit except in cans? yes peaches and nectarines are grown in gardens down south in sheltered areas on the Gulf Stream, figs grow in many areas. Even when I was little we got pomegranates as a treat. I guess guest must have had tinned bananas. I'm surprised at you, most of the soft fruit we eat in this country is grown in Scotland.
Don't fear, I know what is grown here, but a lot aren't. You didn't get pomegranates grown here though...and how mass a market do we have in English figs?
We don't, most of them come from TURKEY. They are grown here in people's gardens, my niece has a fantastic tree which gives a great crop every year.
