Blueberries

While blueberries are available year-round, they are best from May through October, which is their natural harvest time. Choose blueberries that are firm and lightly frosted in appearance. Shake the container — the berries should rattle around. Berries that are clumped may be mushy or moldy and past their prime. Blueberries will keep in your refrigerator for up to two weeks, as long as you don't wash them until you're about to eat them (blueberries don't handle moisture well over the long term). And you can always find blueberries in the freezer section of your favorite market, ready to add to your favorite recipe.

If you want to stay young forever, then blueberries should be a regular part of your diet, not only because of how healthy they are, but also because they're fun to eat. Toss them in pancakes or low-fat muffins (the homemade kind, not the high-calorie, high-sugar monstrosities you find in the store). Throw them in the blender with lowfat or soy milk, half a banana and ice for a yummy smoothie. Eat them right out of the container as a snack. Isn't it great that one of the healthiest foods on earth is also one of the tastiest?
