Updated . Edited by: Ilyass Ben Hakim.

Where to buy

Look in the frozen fruit aisle of large grocery chains. Warehouse clubs often carry big bags. The Wyman's site has a store locator.

Professional insight

Frozen food buyers shake the bag first. Loose, rattling berries mean the cold chain held.

  • A solid frozen block means the bag thawed once.
  • Frost inside the bag points to long or warm storage.
  • Wild berries are small; that is normal, not poor quality.
  • Pick bags from the back, coldest part of the freezer.
