Both CS and I have written in the past about the things we love to eat and drink and let me add another, Rainer Cherries. Without a doubt, this is the single food item I will miss the most about leaving the Northwest. They are only in season for a few summer weeks each year and I buy them like they are going out of style. Technically they are a combination of Bing and Van cherries and their flavor is the perfect mix of sweet and tart. I am seriously considering figuring out how to get some sent to Lawrence next summer.The Smashing Pumpkins -- Cherry

Thoroughly delicious and aurally pleasing post. Since I am still stuck in Seattle I will eat more Rainier cherries on your behalf.
I discovered Rainier Cherries on a trip to the Northwest a couple years back... very good stuff as you say.
They started showing up at the local grocer in the last couple of years! Expensive, but worth it.
