Blackberries are fine, yet raspberries rot right away.
48 hrs. Tops.
In my experience working at Walmart in Fresh and a local grocery store, Driscolls is often moldy in the truck it arrived at the store in before it even gets to the shelf.
Pro Tip: Never buy “fresh produce” of any kind from Walmart. Find a grocery store that has good produce and only buy there. It’s worth the extra money.
Fresh berries are hard to ship. And raspberries are probably among the hardest to ship 1000mile/kilometers and expect them to last. And most commercial varieties of berries taste have no flavor anyway.
Never buy fresh berries that you aren’t going to eat the same day or the day after. Frozen berries are easy to thaw well and are more than good enough for most things.
They rot while you bring them home somehow.
You have to eat them in store before you leave, it’s the only way.
I love fruit on my cereal, but that doesn’t take a ton per bowl. I’ve gotten to the point where I only buy blueberries because they last pretty well. I’m happy when I have people over and make a fruit salad because then there’s usually some leftover other kinds of berries.

THE MILK IS ABOUT TO GO BAD.

And there it goes…
I started getting oat/almond milk for this reason. Less land/CO2 usage, and they last longer.
Dang it Bobby!!

Funny how my brain recognizes Canadian packaging before I consciously register the bilingual labelling.
Pretty sure we have this exact same packaging in the US.
I’ve seen this brand in germany as well. Guess they are international.
I was talking about the packaging, not the brand. However setting my VPN exit node to a US location and looking up pictures of the product, most results do indeed have the same English-French labelling, funny.
Probably not with French on it.
Nope, I’m pretty sure it’s the exact same thing. Look more closely.
Packaged in Watsonville California even. lol
Lotta products packaged in the USA and shipped up.
Thry try harder to hide it lately…
Buy frozen :)
Not in my fridge! I just threw them out an hour ago.
I learned to make jam just so they wouldn’t be a complete waste.
Got some from a neighbor the other day… Left them on the counter… fuck.
