We had some huge gooseberry bushes when I was growing up, but I only remember my mum preparing them in a fool or a pie; so therefore I am interested to see how everyone else eats them.

Or in a pie/tart, boiled/stewed maybe but always with cream, or custard. Happens to be a good year for them this time with plenty of fruit per thorny, and I mean 'horrendously thorny' bushes!

I gave up the pre-packaged fools from the supermarket because they're loaded with sugar. I just eat plain yogurt and add my own fruit. But I think in yogurt, whole gooseberries would be good.
