    joramos reacted to B King's post in the thread Low-hanging fruit with Thank you Thank you.
    There was a man ahead of us who picked a bunch of kiwis (filled his pockets). He began walking and ate one, realized they were not ripe, and through them all away! What a waste. You are a guest in the country. The fruit is not yours. Be...

    The day before arriving in Santiago this magnificent fruit was on the ground amidst a pile of squished ones. I took a picture after the first juicy bite to remember the blessing that it was! I wouldn’t have considered plucking one from the tree...

    joramos reacted to Pjoy's post in the thread Low-hanging fruit with Thank you Thank you.
    We saw people picking cherries off of people’s yards- not farms or vineyards- and felt that was rude as down the road people were selling them. It is their yard and not a pilgrims walking by to pull down the branches to pick off fruit. As far as...

    I see that the body of this conversation is ok with taking one...maybe two pieces of fruit. They discuss the legal side of things. The Author also emphasizes the legal side, with an attempt to discover how local law might compare to Spanish law...

    Regardless of where the fruit hangs, it belongs to someone. Even up in the mountains where you may think that nobody even knows the tree is there you can be assured that somebody does know. There is no wild fruit. Stick to plucking socks off the...

    Not acceptable to take what isn't yours, we must remember it's the local rules and customs rather than those at home. Same with the bread hanging on doors... it's not left there for the wandering pilgrims I'd not bother with the bottles of water...

    joramos reacted to thewalkingkat's post in the thread Low-hanging fruit with Thank you Thank you.
    For me, it’s a hard no, no matter where the fruit is hanging. I‘ve seem too many people walk straight into vineyards and taking massive amounts of grapes (in both France and Spain) AND then reason that it’s okay since they only take a few and...
