A trip to Maine during the summer of 2007 spoiled me – the blueberries there are so delicious, I can't eat store-bought bluberries anymore! While I was there, I even piled blueberries into every glass of water I poured and would eat the blueberries as I drank the water. I couldn't get enough of them!
[A word of caution to people with kidney stone issues, though, because I read somewhere that blueberries can contribute to one type of kidney stone, and that's no fun.]
