Guest guest Posted May 19, 2012 Report Share Posted May 19, 2012 Fresh is better IMHO - and yes, are they organic? Just used some fresh plant ripened organic strawberries this am and they are a world of difference to me. I have a bag of frozen organic strawberries and peaches I've been using, but the taste, even the color, is quite different. And the peaches are doused in lemon - I tried to blend them all on their own and got nothing but lemon flavor. I'd only be interested in the berries if they are organic, I won't buy them otherwise. > > > So I had the idea to find a " Pick-your-own " strawberry farm. Found one, but at the prices they wanted, buying frozen from the grocery store was much cheaper. Now I know everyones first response/thought may be that it is better to buy local for various reasons (supporting local, taste better), but isn't frozen fruit froze at the peak of ripeness as well? I would consider buying fresh for a pie, etc.... But for smoothies only does it realy matter? I hope the trend isn't the same with peaches and other goods this year. Was planning on hitting the farmers market hard this year and will do as I know there are just some things that are superior fresh and local. > > Sent from my Samsung Epicâ„¢ 4G > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
