I'm amazed that you've never eaten a piece of cherry pie! You might try
eating some sweet bing cherries (those are the very dark almost black
cherries) fresh, out of hand. They are quite sweet and delicious.
Maraschino cherries are highly processed with chemicals to give them the
texture, color, and flavor that are distinct to them. While they're still
cherries, of course, they bear little resemblance to any other form of
cherry.
