Are frozen berries okay? I bought a bunch of blueberries a while ago and through them in the freezer. I used them in my smoothie this am but then started wondering if its okay to use frozen?

Raw purists would say no, because you’re supposed to eat foods as fresh as possible. The priority for purchasing is:

Pick yourself
buy from farmer’s market
buy from natural foods market
buy from regular grocery store

Never BUY frozen foods for a raw diet, because they’re blanched before frozen. I wouldn’t freak about the blueberries you froze yourself this one time, but for myself, I wouldn’t make a habit of eating once-frozen fruits or veggies.
