Grocery shopping with a twist

The food category I chose to do this blog is my favorite fruit "STRAWBERRY". From this category, I could think of strawberry candy, ice-cream, juice, and with chocolate dipped, shortcake, cheesecake, jello, jam, salad, muffin, pie, wine, bubble tea etc. Strawberry is not only delicious, but also nutritious that it contains a range of nutrients. What really inspire me is how one thing (strawberry) can turn in to a variety of treat in different shape and texture for us to enjoy. According to Schirrmacher & Fox (2009), texture refers to the surface quality of a work of art. Just like strawberry itself may taste sour and juicy, and ice-cream maybe cold and sweet etc. And the shape of these products (strawberry candy, ice-cream, juicy...etc)  are turn into either geometrical or non-geometrical shapes that vary from one another.

Out of the list of my example, I have chosen to sketch four of my favorite product made from strawberry, and they are strawberry candy, chocolate dipped strawberry, strawberry ice-cream and strawberry juice. Each strawberry has their own shape, although they are very alike, some are bigger than other, rounder than tho other. Chocolate dipped strawberry is very similar to strawberry except with chocolate the texture may taste better and sweeter, especially yummier :) Candy vary from both shape like lollipop, jellybeans, marshmallow...etc and texture can be hard, soft or chewy. Ice-cream, depending on how we scope it it may have a different shape, and the texture is very cold and it will cool you down from anger haha. Strawberry juice, there is no shape because it had turn into liquid, and the texture is more watery but sweet. THEY ARE JUST DELICIOUS !
