Fruit: Organic Strawberries

Strawberries are a popular fruit grown worldwide. They are typically eaten fresh, but can also be processed into jams, jellies, and other fruit products. Organic strawberries are grown without the use of synthetic pesticides or fertilizers.

Manufacturers add strawberries to foods for their natural sweetness, flavor, and color. They are commonly found in yogurts, jams, baked goods, and desserts.

Strawberries are a source of vitamin C and antioxidants. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) recognizes strawberries as Generally Recognized As Safe (GRAS). Regulatory bodies like the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) have evaluated strawberries and found them safe for consumption. No specific health concerns are associated with typical consumption of strawberries.
