i know there are a lot of ardent peach lovers out there so, at the risk of alienating all of you and having you come after me with pitchforks, i’m just gonna say it: nectarines are better than peaches. i’m not even going to bring up the fact that peaches are furry; it seems like a low blow to bring up such an obvious deficiency. instead, i will just say that i find nectarines to have a far superior and much more pronounced flavor.
