mmm a whole pallet of blueberries for dinner
Last year I went blueberry picking the day before I had to leave for vacation. So I took a quart-size bag of blueberries on the plane with me and ate those the whole way there. 10/10 best plane snack I've ever had!
Please, only plebes go for the pallet.
If you really want to maximize your per berry savings, then you need to buy the dockside warehouse package.
Frozen blueberries are about $15/4#, and don't go bad unless you forget them for several years and they get hideously freezer burned. Yeah, they're as good as fresh if you're just eating plain blueberries, but if you're making something that uses blueberries as an ingredient, they work wonderfully.
I've switched to frozen vegetables for the same reason. The way I normally cook, it doesn't make an appreciable difference to me, and I don't have a crisper that's filled with a moldy who knows what from however long ago that was.
I've gotten blueberries from Costco that went moldy the day after. I've never had a serious issue with frozen food going bad
Frozen food is processed way closer to where it's grown as opposed to the produce that might be shipped across hemispheres before you get it. So frozen stuff tends to be more consistent in quality.
Yeah but I have a hot dog and you don't
