How to store. Refrigerate fresh blueberries in their original plastic package, a covered bowl, or container. Do not wash blueberries before storing them. Refrigerated blueberries will remain fresh up to 10 days of purchase. Don’t forget to wash your fresh blueberries just before you eat them. Fresh frozen berries can be stored in the freezer for up to 10 months.
How to eat. Blueberries are best enjoyed fresh to retain all the nutritional goodness and great taste. Eat them by the handful for a snack, sprinkle on breakfast cereal, mix them in smoothies, or pour them over yogurt or ice-cream.
Bon Appétit!
