No, its not the same ones you get from the grocery store. They're smaller, and much sweeter, and they taste quite different as well. They're about the size of your pinky nail.

For the recipe, you can still use regular strawberries, but if you want to stay as close to the recipe as possible I would buy organic, smaller, and kind of more "squashed" looking strawberries (when they are fatter around the middle then from the green part to the tip).

But really, it doesn't really matter, unless you're making preserves, then I would avoid using regular strawberries.

Wild strawberries are the same as the ones in the supermarket. When I think of wild strawberries, I think of organic, or strawberries home grown without pesticides. They taste much, much better then the regular store bought variety.
