Strawberries…they’re so delicious and good for you that it’s hard to imagine any reason to avoid them. Unfortunately, it’s a well-known fact in organic circles that conventional strawberries have an incredibly high pesticide load and are to be avoided like the plague. Lucky for strawberry-lovers like me, organic ones are commonly available theses days—for a premium, which means they’re usually really flippin’ expensive.
Tomorrow (4/29), however, Whole Foods is having a sale on organic strawberries. While supplies last, you can get a pound of delicious, antioxidant-rich, pesticide-free strawberries for the bargain price of $1.99. That’s $4 less than I usually pay and if my math is correct, an 80% discount. I plan to buy extra and freeze them for smoothies, which are my old stand-by when I find myself without any fresh fruits or vegetables for dinner.
Don’t forget, Friday 4/29. Enjoy!
