So lifelike these pics from outer space ☺️; ২৭/৭/২২, ১২:২৮ PM
CJinPA বলেছেন...: How come there's no blue food? People say "blueberries." Wrong. Blue on the vine, purple on the plate. WE WANT THE BLUE FOOD. -- George Carlin; ২৭/৭/২২, ১২:৩৬ PM
Humperdink বলেছেন...: Having been recently diagnosed with diabetes, my nutritionist tells me the best fruits to eat end in "berry", as in straw, rasp, black and blue. The blues are my favorite.; ২৭/৭/২২, ১২:৪৬ PM
Gusty Winds বলেছেন...: My name is Kamala Harris. My Pronouns are she and her. I am a woman sitting at the head of the table, and wearing a blueberry colored suit.; ২৭/৭/২২, ১২:৪৯ PM
R C Belaire বলেছেন...: As a kid, spent hours picking wild blueberries in the sandy, flat expanse of Michigan's eastern UP.; ২৭/৭/২২, ১২:৫৪ PM
Mark বলেছেন...: Got our first harvest off our June berry shrub/tree this year ... which reminded me of blueberries but any 'off tasting' berries.

Thankful for the prior owners of our home who made some poor choices but planted a tasty fruit bearing native.; ২৭/৭/২২, ১:৩১ PM
Michael K বলেছেন...: My favorite breakfast addition to the cereal.; ২৭/৭/২২, ১:৪৯ PM
Carol বলেছেন...: I eat them nearly every day now for my eyes. It's supposed to be one of the best foods to head off macular degeneration.; ২৭/৭/২২, ২:৩৭ PM
jaydub বলেছেন...: I eat blueberries on top of "2 Good" low carb yogurt every morning for breakfast and have done so since starting a low carb diet 2 years ago. It's the perfect breakfast food for me.; ২৭/৭/২২, ২:৪২ PM
What's emanating from your penumbra বলেছেন...: I’m with Michael K. Blueberries and bananas.; ২৭/৭/২২, ২:৫৩ PM
Curious George বলেছেন...: I put them in my oatmeal. I buy a big bag of frozen blueberries, tos them in the boiling water, and then add the 2 minute oatmeal. Frozen blueberries are actually more nutritious then fresh.

"Freezing blueberries increases the berries nutritional content. It is best done when they are fresh! The antioxidant levels in frozen blueberries are as good as and better than fresh. The ice crystals during freezing disrupt the structure of the plant and make anthocyanins more available."; ২৭/৭/২২, ৩:০২ PM
Jersey Fled বলেছেন...: I'm a blueberry snob, growing up only a few miles from Hammonton, NJ - the blueberry capital of the world!

I'll still only eat blueberries fresh picked from a farm in Hammonton, and then only from late June to late July.

Everything else is just a poor substitute.; ২৭/৭/২২, ৩:১৯ PM
Narr বলেছেন...: I'm now berry committed to them--along with siblings Razz, Black, and Straw. I've got a whole morning ritual of selecting, rinsing, and slicing when possible--a post-retirement practice that surprises my former self. (Storebought berries, not homegrown--that's work!)

Frequently I have enough for my wife also, and some are left for the nightly frogurt.

Cool and froody.; ২৭/৭/২২, ৩:২৯ PM
Josephbleau বলেছেন...: The iron mining areas in the UP contiguous to Wisconsin have blue, black and Rasp berries planted in the 19th century. Now safety and insurance problems prevent people from enjoying them.; ২৭/৭/২২, ৩:৫৭ PM
Rollo বলেছেন...: Careful, there's a reason why there was once an Althouse parody site. I can't find it now. It might have been bought out by Alternative Hose LLC.; ২৭/৭/২২, ৪:২৯ PM
Original Mike বলেছেন...: "I’m with Michael K. Blueberries and bananas."

Cereal, milk, with a banana on top was the most unhealthy thing I (used to) eat. 80 grams of carbs. Uff daa.; ২৭/৭/২২, ৬:৫২ PM

farmgirl বলেছেন...: There’s such a Berry known s as a black raspberry.
It’s the sweetest berry I’ve known. When r we were kids we’d pick wild raspberries by the bucketfuls! So much fun.; ২৮/৭/২২, ৬:১৮ AM

Narr বলেছেন...: I hate bananas. That is all.; ২৮/৭/২২, ৯:১৭ AM
