When I was in high school, a lot of gas stations would sell individual Cella's cherries for a quarter. We didn't have a ton of money, but mom could spare a quarter. When her and I would be out and about, if some place had Cella cherries for sale individually, we each got one. It's a great memory.
For those of you who are unfamiliar with them, Cella's cherries are chocolate covered cherries. While the majority of chocolate covered cherries have a creme center, Cella's cherries have a liquid center. I have seen them made with dark chocolate, but they are usually milk chocolate. The wrapper is red with gold writing, and I only ever see them at Christmas and Valentine's Day.
Cella's cherries are amazing. I don't usually eat cherries. They are not among my favorite fruits. However, if they're encased in liquid and covered in chocolate, they're a fine treat. I haven't had them in months, but Christmas is around the corner. This means they're on sale at Wal-Mart. If you've never tried one, you should. If you don't like them, you can send them to me!
I am proud that I only bought one package. I'm ashamed that I displayed food aggression when Mark ate one. They're that good.
