Berry mix linked to hepatitis A outbreak

Berries are pretty easy to freeze at home, it might be a way of feeling more safe about what you're getting. In the summer when local growers are in full swing, you can pick your own, especially from organic or lower chemical growers, wash them, and let them air dry. Then place in a single layer on a cookie sheet or baking dish and freeze. When frozen solid, place in freezer bags. I use food saver or ziplock vacuum bags. They make nice flat packets if you lay the larger type bag on its side and vac it closed. They stack well in the freezer. I just got a case and a half of organic blueberries from Whole Foods for $1.99 a pint and did up most of them this way.
