Strawberries From Wikipedia!

"The strawberry (Fragaria) (plural strawberries) is the name of a genus of plants in the family Rosaceae and their edible fruits. There are more than 20 named species and many hybrids and cultivars. The most common strawberries grown commercially are cultivars of the Garden strawberry. Strawberries have a taste that varies by cultivar, and ranges from quite sweet to rather tart. Strawberries are an important commercial fruit crop, widely grown in all temperate regions of the world."

Strawberries are the (seemingly) worlds favorite kind of berry. They seem to be the favorite berry for articles, photos, even blogs LOL :) Strawberries are an excellent source of vitamin c and other antioxidants. The Strawberry has been made into pies, cakes, and preserves for ages and I for one am thankful :)
