The blackberry, plump and sweet, is closely related to the raspberry but is larger and juicier, with a grainier texture and a more assertive flavor. The core does not separate from the fruit. Although blackberries grow wild in temperate regions of the northern hemisphere, they're Asian in origin.
Health Benefits: Blackberries are a mild diuretic and astringent and are therefore useful for diarrhea, dysentery, and hemorrhoids. The Romans used them as a gout treatment. They are rich in vitamin C and pectin.
from Rebecca Wood's The New Whole Foods Encyclopedia
When storing fresh strawberries, refrain from washing them until they are being prepared for serving. Keep the berries refrigerated and if possible, place a layer of paper toweling between either layer of berries. The paper towel keep the berries from mold
