The freshest unfrozen berries will be from the farmers at the farmers markets because they are picked when fully ripened just before coming to the farmers market. Conventional berries at the supermarket are not picked ripe. Often fruit such as supermarket peaches are force ripened. Because they are not fully field-ripened, the supermarket fresh berries will not have as good a nutritional profile as those from the farmers market or frozen which are picked when fully ripened. Yes, they may have the same nutritional elements, but definitely not the same amounts. A conventional fresh strawberry from the supermarket will usually be white inside whereas the frozen strawberries or farmers market strawberries will be red all the way through.

I've heard that frozen veggies and fruit are better than fresh and canned....
Thanks Doc! You're awesome!

I live alone and have always struggled with buying fresh produce and then half of it rotting before I can eat it all. Money wasted. I started buying frozen fruit and veggies and now can prepare exactly as much as I need, and no waste.

I use frozen fruit and veggies in my protein smoothie every morning.

I make a slushie with frozen berries, leaving them whole in the liquid for a few minutes before I eat, so the berry defrosts a little and the water freezes to slush.
•This satisfies my thirst much more than either of them separately.
•I make a 6 oz or 8 oz serving, not 16-24 oz. like a smoothie, because I don’t need that much fruit sugar in a giant serving.
•But I feel so different, really not thirsty after eating this with a spoon, like a sherbet (including chewing the berries, not just swallowing).
•Thanks for sharing how good in food quality these frozen berries can be, and outlets like Grocery Outlet stores have giant bags of organic berries for $10 (3 lbs I think).
•I think you’re right that a reliable supply of fresh-frozen berries can be better than a lottery of fresh berries, and with a 3 lb bag, I have weeks of supply on hand.
•With gas over $7, that is very appealing.
•Also I steam a whole bag of fresh-frozen veggies (like 12 oz of green beans) and keep in the fridge for a healthy grazing snack instead of chips, etc.
•When there is something healthy 🌿 ready, I don’t buy or eat as much junk gunk ☺️. Thanks for all your encouragement along the way 🙏🕊.

I’ve been buying fresh blueberries or strawberries but always soaking them for 10 minutes in baking soda or.ACV making sure they get a good wash, love them in my banana smoothie 💕

Love frozen berries and bananas for protein shakes. Better value, no need to add ice blender, no need to stem, de pulp, cut, separate, freeze and bag berries -- saves time. Taste great!

Does any enzymes or vitamins get destroyed from freezing?

I usually buy fresh and once I get them home give them a good rinse and freeze them right away.
