Fresh summer berries + summer heat = mold.
Take the berries out of their packaging(if they are store bought), and soak in a large bowl with 1 part vinegar, and 10 parts water. (Don’t put the fruit back in the original packaging, it can re-contaminate the berries.)
Remove the berries from the water and lay out on paper towels to dry.
Place in a clean zip-lock bag, or plastic container with lid. Keep refrigerated.
I actually use this to wash all of my produce. It works great.

Unfortunatly I couldn't find where I found this tip out...sorry! If you google vinegar berry wash....Tada!
You know I will have to try that. Whenever I buy strawberries, I think it take like 4 hours and they already have mold on them. I may be exaggerating... a little. You have a lot of posts on here. I had to take my Ritalin just so I could focus long enough to write this comment. haha
