What happened to raspberry pies?
For two years now, no raspberry pies for sale at the grocery here in Northern Michigan. Now I understand this is apple and tart cherry country, but that shouldn't impact mass produced major brands...

There has been a problem with Red Raspberries for the past several years and it is spreading. The worm problem is spread by the Spotted Winged Drosophila. The worms infest the fruit even before it ripens, so when picked they show up in the containers (and I suppose in the pies, although they are dead if baked in a pie).
Here's a link to info: Link here
Thanks for the link, and the bad news. I guess that explains the $$$ price for "fresh picked" berries as well back in late summer.
I appreciate the replies everyone, thank you!
