I always wash my fruit before I eat it when I buy it fresh. Recently I've been buying frozen bluberries and honestly I sort of like just eating them straight out of the bag (after letting them sit out for a little bit). But I'm wondering - should I be washing the berries before I eat them? If they were fresh I'd absolutely wash them but I'm unsure if this is necessary for frozen.

I usually put them in a bowl and run them under cold water, but that's more to defrost them a little than any concern about sanitation.

hmm this is a good idea. do you eat them out of the bag or are you cooking them?

Out of the bag, I like when they're still partially frozen.
