FAVORITE SPRING FOODS

There could be a run on strawberries in the coming weeks. With the weather changing a fresh crop of seasonal fruits and vegetables are on the way, and a new FoodNetwork.com poll shows that strawberries are by far the most anticipated of the bunch. More than 60-percent of respondents say they're most eager to eat strawberries this spring. By comparison, just 24-percent are looking forward to dining on asparagus, which is the only other food with a double-digit draw. Artichokes take third on the list as the favorite of seven-percent, while rhubarb follows closely at five-percent. Just three-percent are awaiting the arrival of spring peas.
