    Gooseberries?

    As per title, does anyone know where gooseberries can be found this time of year?

    I'd imagine they are really only available frozen, but that'll do!

    Thanks.

    Sorry, I should be more specific. They are only in season in July. Hence my problem...

    Ah (light bulb moment)

    I'd have thought any of the larger supermarket food cabinets. I'm off to Sainsburys later, I'll have a look if I remember!

    Edit:

    Maybe not so easy...

    Just looked online. Asda have canned gooseberries, nothing in Sainsburys. Iceland might be worth checking (website is useless) Not looked in any of the other supermarket sites.

    You could buy a couple of plants and put them in pots for next year...
