"Strawberries in a Pot"
Artist: Otto Diderich Ottsen

What a delicious painting
I am really enjoying the season.
Fresh strawberries have a delicious naturally sweet taste but
There's only about 50 calories in a whole cup!
Strawberries are highly nutritious.
Eight medium size fresh berries contain about 150% of the recommended daily intake of vitamin C
And 20% of folic acid.
They're also high in potassium and a good source of dietary fiber.
Don't buy berries that are partly white and unripe.
Choose strawberries with a bright red color and fresh green caps.
Strawberries do not continue to ripen after they've been picked.
The size of a strawberry is not a factor in determining the sweetness or taste.
That's determined by the variety of strawberry, weather and growing conditions, and the degree of Ripeness when picked.
