I saw frozen blueberries, raspberries and forest fruits in the freezer section....

...They all things I buy fresh for the fridge and they go off before I used them all.

Can they be defrosted and eaten on their own? I know it's better fresh. I'd really like to have a big selection for the dcs. (I normally have bananas, pears, satsumas and apples on the kitchen table to take as and when)

I'd just like to waste less food.

Me too, Margo

At least I have a pretty good idea which town her Booths is in...

margo i do want be anon but do you have CAT?

i'm also a bit fed up paying several quid for a teensy carton of fresh stuff. frozen sounds like a good option. how long do they take to defrost and do you just put them in the fridge to defrost or what? ta [total kitchen numpty emoticon]

wendy YOU know!!!!!

Well I do now, but I only found out on a thread in the last couple of days, I had no idea before that

Ideally you get some out ahead of time and let it sit, hcs - it doesn't take long.

Otherwise you could do it in the microwave with a few short bursts on defrost.

oh no ! hope i am not letting slip! tbh there are 3 people in the world who i changed my name to 'hide' from so i should not worry!

Or put it in a sealed plastic bag and let it sit in a bowl of room temp water for a bit.

Generally not, paula, but there's this one thread which is a bit of a giveaway (or was to me) but I won't say which one or that might be too...

(It's tricky going incognito, isn't it!)

i am going o start buying this to add to the kids yoghurt but is it much cheaper

Probably not cheaper but it's pure fruit, no sugar or preservatives or anything - def worth it.

Semi-defrosted raspberries are lovely, as are grapes.

(and kiwi fruit and banana)

I sometimes take a tub full to work and eat them for breakfast - they've defrosted enough, but not too much.

Am at gooseberries though. Didn't see any gooseberries last year.

yes PaulaYatesBiggesrFan - I have CAT

thanks WWeber, have bought tub in Tescos tonight, will give them a try tomorrow!
