Cranberries......The super food!!!
I have always known about the health benefits of this small berry, but I just found out some interesting facts about them.....
Did you know that 80% of the cranberries are grown in the US and Canada.
They are grown in what is referred to as a bog, some commercials show the berries underwater but thats not 100% true.
They flood the bog twice a year, the first time to protect the plants over the Winter.
Then just before harvest they flood the bog and the berries float to the surface for easy harvest!
Snack on some, or bake with them, just enjoy them!!!
