Fresh vs. frozen berries

Most of the berries were bland, a few were nice and sweet. I checked things out online and found that frozen berries are probably healthier than fresh.

if you are very finicky about taste of strawberries
it is best to grow your own or go pick your own when
they are ready locally.
the frozen ones are better than the fresh ones in
the middle of winter when you are desperate, but if
you can get the fresh ones and put those up they
are going to be better because they'll be riper than
the mass produced frozen ones.
we take the frozen ones in the winter and i add
some of my strawberry freezer jam to them to make
them much better tasting than anything you can
get shipped in from CA. those tasteless berries
aren't worth the bother. they may look ok but
blech.
