THERE’S nothing quite as heart breaking as going to dig into your fresh berries only to discover they’ve already gone bad.
It feels like as soon as you leave the shop with the delicious fruits time speeds up and they begin to grow mould.

The gardening and food whizz shared how they keep their berries perfectly juicy for longer, and it’s so simple.
Eating Healthy Today shared on Instagram: “I am fully aware that most of us gobble up those precious berries the second we get them.

“Or I buy in a large quantity from the farmers market and they go bad quickly, and I’ve now wasted food.”
The pros hack is to simply add the berries to a bowl with white vinegar and water.

Then just dry the berries, “this is the most important step,” the pro says.

And voila! Fresh berries for days and days.
People loved the simple trick: “I can vouch for this, I use apple cider vinegar and mason jars to store though.”
