I love to have cereal with fresh berries in the morning. Although they are expensive there will always be baskets of raspberries, strawberries and blueberries in my shopping cart. I live 45 minutes from the nearest grocery store so I do not have the luxury of shopping every day so I buy several boxes.
My frustration has been finding the berries getting moldy almost before I get them in the fridge and have to throw out a fair portion.
I read about a tip to keep berries fresher longer and it worked! You wash your berries in a mixture of 10 parts water to one part vinegar as soon as you get home. The berries stay fresh for days! Apparently the vinegar kills the mold on the surface of the berry. I do find I have to eat the raspberries first, then the strawberries and the blueberries stay the longest.
Hope this works for you too!
