Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between blackberries and black raspberries?
Black raspberries are smaller, have a hollow center when picked (like regular raspberries), and have a more intense, sweeter flavor. Blackberries are larger with a solid white core and more tart flavor.
Are blackberry seeds good for you?
Yes, blackberry seeds contain fiber, omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, and antioxidants. While some find them distracting, they're completely safe and add nutritional value. Chewing releases more nutrients.
Why do blackberries sometimes taste bitter?
Underripe blackberries are tart and can taste bitter. Fully ripe blackberries are deep black (not red), plump, and easily release from the stem. They don't ripen after picking, so choose carefully.
