Strawberry Hack: How Ice Water Can Refresh Your Soggy Strawberries

Nothing quite compares to eating a bowl of fresh strawberries but that sweet fruit never seems to last as long as we want it! We’ve all experienced opening a container to find mushy strawberries at one time or another. But what if we told you there is a hack that could help revive those mushy strawberries! Luckily for us, a Facebook user tried this hack and shared it. Guess what, it works!

Facebook user, Brittany King, shared that if you toss your “kind of sad strawberries” in a bowl of ice water for about 20 minutes they will firm up and become good as new! That said, this hack is for strawberries that may have become bruised or slightly soft. This is not a hack for strawberries that have started to rot or decay. If you spot any mold it is seriously time to toss them, do not try to revive them — gross!
