Maraschino Cherries

Not technically food. There are real MaraschinoCherries, though. Jessica got me these Luxardo Marasche, which are Italian in syrup. From the catalog: {nid MF3}

These luscious cherries bear no resemblance to the neon-complexioned orbs that inhabited the Shirley Temples of our youth. Since 1821, the Luxardo family of Torreglia, Italy, has transformed the small, dark bitter cherries from trees found only on the Dalmation coast into sublimely sweet, but not cloyingly so, liqueurs, jams and fruit confections. {nid MF4}
