- In addition, since blueberries are mostly imported, when buying, you should choose reputable fruit stores or buy in supermarkets, and remember to check for blueberry containers with production dates close to the purchase date.
- Do not choose blueberry containers with poorly packaged materials, where most of the blueberries in the box are bruised, leaking, or moldy.
