I love berries. I didn't think that there was a berry that I didn't like. Until...I had blackberries...plain.
In researching blackberries this morning, http://www.antioxidants-guide.com/health_benefit_of_blackberries.html Blackberries help prevent cancer and heart disease and are extremely high on the anti-oxidant list, one of the top ten in fact.
What I also learned, it isn't a great idea to eat them plain. Mix them with other berries - raspberries, strawberries, cranberries...eating a pint of them plain, not so fabulous. Actually, I should correct myself. Eating them they weren't bad.
The after taste? It ranks up there with the taste of cigarette ashes. So what is it in blackberries that leaves such a nasty taste in the mouth?
