I wish I could afford that much! Berries are what make Summer for me, such a great time of year for raw food :)

Booo! You'd think with blueberries being the state fruit, and me being within 20 minutes of about 3 farms the prices wouldn't be so painful. $3.75 a pint. It's a once in a while treat :(

I'm thinking I should just go to the farms to pick some, but they all have really inconvenient hours and I might as well be albino with as badly as I take to the sun. Seriously, passenger side - 10 minutes -driving to the store at 12noon and I'm a ripe tomato. Sigh.

If you don't have a problem with frozen fruit, you can sometimes get organic frozen blueberries as cheap as $2/pound.

I know some people avoid frozen fruit, but I eat a few pounds of it a week. It stretches my food money and I think the damage to the food is small.

I read somewhere the damage is 60% of the enzymes or more. I dont know about the nutrients though.

And then it depends on where a person stands on the enzyme theory. I've seen several different stances there.

I love going into the forest and picking blueberries and freezing them down. There is nothing more rewarding than taking them out and eating them on a dark winter's day. If you close your eyes at the same time, you can almost feel the summer warmth.
