• Strawberries, blueberries, blackberries and raspberries: Transfer the berries from the clamshell packaging into a bag or container lined with a paper or cloth towel. Wash right before you’re ready to eat them. Pre-washing berries will cause them to get soggy.
• Freeze any unused fruit by cutting them into bite-sized pieces, laying them on a flat sheet with parchment paper and placing them in the freezer. Once frozen, remove the fruit from sheet and store in a plastic bag or container.
