Cranberries are harvested in late autumn, just in time to celebrate the holidays.

They’re tart, dark red, and pair really well with a turkey dinner (according to science).

I love this stuff. Science really is the base with food – wish I was a little further along myself on this – thank you for the enlightenment!!!
