Berries are just one of the many natural foods God gave us to protect our bodies from aberrations like cancer! So why don't they work in America? Because farmers are not taking care of our soils. Even when we get our food from "organic" sources in Costa Rica - the soils are so depleted that the foods that are supposed to keep us healthy don't! The result is lousy flavor, too - but you may not know that if you have never eaten fruit from outside North America.
This is where I buy my antioxidants. The fruit tastes like candy and the vegetables have richer flavor than a steak. When foods don't taste good, they aren't nutritious, either. Blueberries and cantaloupe are supposed to taste better than candy but in the states, even at Wild Oats and Whole Foods, it's rare to find fruit that tastes good.
Tell your produce manager you want better fruit. We want to live to be 150, as we should.
