My gliders are silly little furbutts. They wont eat strawberries or bananas when either fruit is offered alone. BUT if I blend the two, they will eat every bite!

Mine ate strawberries like they were going out of style, at first. Now they won't touch them with a ten foot pole.

My guess is that at first they were thrilled to get ANY real food and after getting a variety they decided they didn't really care for those after all.......LOL

Or else they are just finicky like my kids. Love it or hate it depending on the day of the week and which way the wind blows.......

How do you clean the strawberries to make sure there's nothing harmful on them? I'm always worried about fruit that's not smooth skinned, and hard to wash thoroughly.

My 2 baby boys and the mom love them. The dad likes to eat the insides out and sit in it. He turns red. I only give them those on special occasions now lol.

You can just rinse them off with water or put them in a bowl full of water and let them sit for a couple minutes to soak and then rinse this is what I did in the resturant.

Mine loves Watermelon, blackberry, raspberry, and strawberry, I buy the frozen mixed fruit bag at the grocery store. So she has a variety, I also give her whatever I have fresh that I eat for myself.
