Strawberries for Dessert

Picked up a few strawberries at the store over the weekend. They looked very fresh. You are always taking a chance on store bought berries of any kind. But these were very good. Fresh and sweet. I did not add anything to these. Diced them up and they are so good. I called it my dessert. Enjoy your evening everyone. Going to the deck to get in some relaxing birdwatching. Dinner time for the babies.

Growing up, that's how "dessert" was for us too. No fuss and healthy. Enjoy your strawberries!

You are right, we never know how good berries bought in stores are. I like strawberries, I think I am going to have more soon in the garden.

I have gotten some at the store that were as good or better than any I have had fresh..I think it has to do with the brand and how quickly they can get them in the store and on the shelves. I bought some fresh ones last week, and they were wayy over priced, good but not 3.50 a pint good!

Fresh is good if you have them. Everything is overpriced it seems.

I don't buy fruits or veggies frsh very often, when I do, I rinse them under cold water before I do anything. Even if it comes in a container. I even got my husband in the habit, too.

@CarolDM Yes, I know. That stuff was once in the ground or on the ground or near the ground or possibly sprayed with something. You just don't know.

My husband always douses the strawberries with a bunch of sugar. Too sweet for me.

I used to but if you find good ones, and ripe ones, they usually don't need sugar for me.

Yummy! This is a rare treat for me. It's a bit pricey as strawberries can't just be planted in this hot weather.
