Why are strawberries so great?
The best thing about strawberries is that they taste delicious. Some people like to wash them and eat them right from the container, others like to add cream and make strawberries and cream, a sprinkle of sugar or even blend them in a smoothie. There are so many ways you can eat strawberries and the good thing is that they’re in season starting in the spring and all the way to the end of summer. If you like sweet strawberries and don’t know if they will be sweet just from looking at them, it might be a good idea to smell them, because if they’re very fragrant or have a sweet smell, then they’ll definitely be sweet.
