Letters to
the Editor
Canned Fruit
Quality
Sir,—It is good to hear
that Australian producers are
to step up their efforts to
sell Australian goods over-
seas. However, I have looked
in vain for any evidence that
the drive for markets is to
be accompanied by a cam-
paign to improve the quality
of the goods themselves.
If the lamentable palata-
bility of the canned fruit sold
in Canberra is a fair indica-
tion, a very substantial im-
provement is necessary.
Peaches that are unripe, with
bits of skins and seeds in
them, and wholly lacking a
peach flavour, would attract
nobody, unless he were a
shipwrecked sailor.
R.H. Yarralumla.
