Smart Packing Tips for Fresh Berries

Berries are delicate, but a few little tricks help keep them fresh until lunchtime:

• Line the container with a paper towel to absorb moisture.
• Don’t wash berries until the morning, so they stay firm.
• Separate juicy fruits like raspberries to prevent sogginess.
• Freeze blueberries overnight to keep lunch cool on hot days.
• Use small silicone cups to divide berries from crunchy foods.
