I went raspberry picking the other day, and all the berries I picked are sour? Why?

Question

Anyone know why?

they looked ripe, came easily off the bush..

thanks!

Answer 1

I'd agree they probably weren't ripe yet or they were over ripe- there is a fine line.   Raspberries are difficult but worth the effort - red or black? Black ones are hard to tell if they're ripe sometimes and they do come off easily ripe or not when they're black.. that extra day or so if you can compete with the birds!!

my fav ice cream is black raspberry sherbert - friendly's (east coast thing)

Answer 2

i raspberry have to feel squeezyy

Answer 3

They probably werent ready yet..

Sometimes fruits will look like they are ready but they still need a day or so to "finalize".

Hope I helped!

Answer 4

They weren't ripened yet for whatever reason... or the sun was beating on them hardcore for a while
