ALT IMAGE: Closeup photo of a sugar-filled tea spoon on a wooden table next to 2 strawberries on the left, one of which is cut in half (sagittal cut), giving us a nice view of the inside structure. The spoon is overloaded with sugar to such an extent that there is almost just as much that has spilled on the table.
