guess: high sugar, low fat, high fibre? Vit C cos they are still quite a sharp fruit...
and WAY WAY better than Thorntons missus....10000 times better
but the gallon of cream and kilo of sugar you had them with....whole different thing![]()

Strawberries mmmm had lots of them when I was off the last bit, they are extremely healthy apparently, anti-cancer loads of stuff, according to our weight watchers chart at home 100g of strawberries have 1 point.
That would be an extremely healthy point though.

# 2. Strawberries
What's available: cultivated strawberries come in many different shapes, from small, to large, conical and globular, and some have more seeds and hairs than others.
Healthy highlights: strawberries contain ellagic acid, which is a potent antioxidant. Studies carried out under laboratory conditions have shown that ellagic acid can halt the growth of tumours in the lungs, oesophagus, breast, cervix and the tongue. A study in the USA showed that strawberries reduced the effects of carcinogens in tobacco smoke. In traditional medicine, strawberries are thought to have anti-bacterial properties and were used to cleanse and detoxify the digestive system.
Nutritional content: strawberry seeds are almost indigestible, but have a high vitamin C content. They are highly perishable, which means that loss of vitamin C due to storage will be minimal because they are usually eaten on the same day as they are bought. Just eight strawberries a day provide a fifth of the folate requirement for an adult woman.

Who cares, they are gorgeous!
Usually go picking and eat as many as I pick. Reminds me when my boy Jake was about 3 and we went picking. He crammed as many as he could in and as we walked to the weighing station we noticed the tell tale red marks around his mouth. So we cleaned him up and told him under no circumstances was he to mention he had been eating Strawberries while we were having them weighed. So up's we go and put two large fat baskets on the scales and as the attendant was calculating the cost Jake said......
I'm STUFFED!!!
