Summer's Sensational Strawberries

 

One of my favorite things about summer is all of the delicious fruit that comes into season.  Strawberries top my list of tasty treats.   While I love plenty of desserts made with strawberries, I prefer to eat them right out of the carton. They are perfectly sweet and delicious just the way they are!   

Did you know that California provides 88% of the nation's strawberries? I was surprised to learn this myself.  This region is experiencing an incredibly bountiful harvest this year. With over 35,000 acres of fields across California, the growers will be picking nearly 6 million crates of delicious, ripe strawberries this week to deliver to grocery stores nationwide.

So, wondering how to best take advantage of all these strawberries? Whether it is making fresh strawberry shortcake for a backyard barbeque, dipping them in whipped cream, or just grabbing some as a quick, sweet afternoon snack, strawberries remind us all of long, sunny summer days.

Here are a few fun strawberry facts that you might want to share with your kiddos:

• If you lined up all of the strawberries grown in California in one straight line, they would wrap around the entire Earth 15 times!
• Guessing game! There are about 200 seeds on the outside of each strawberry.
• California harvests over a billion pounds of strawberries annually.
• One acre of land (about the size of one football field) grows about 50,000 pounds of strawberries - that's the same weight as 4 elephants!

For us moms, it's worth knowing:

• Strawberries contain powerful antioxidants and rank second among the top ten fruits in antioxidant capacity: one serving of strawberries contains more Vitamin C than an orange.
• Strawberries may help reduce the risk of heart disease, fight some types of cancer and lower blood pressure.  Not bad for a little red berry!
• Don't forget! The antioxidants in strawberries also aid in memory performance and may help prevent Alzheimer's disease by reducing oxidative stress and inflammation, two key factors that can cause age-related diminished brain function
