Sorry, I don't have the answer either. My wife doesn't eat them cause she says they have too much acid. I strongly disagree! How can something so sweet be acidic? Looking for the answer myself......... Dave
Raspberries are acidic with a pH of 3-4. The different acids in the fruit help the body function. The ellagic acid is a phytonutrient that stops pro-inflammatory enzyme from over activity.
The raspberry has an approximate PH of 6.27. Since this value is less that 7, raspberries are slightly acidic.
The rule for berry edibility (for survival) is: blue, purple, black = 90% good red = 50% good white, yellow, green = 10% good cluster berries (any colour) = 99% good
The chief difference2 between raspberries and blackberries is that raspberries leave the receptacle on the plant when the fruit is picked. This tends to make whole blackberries a better source of fibre than raspberries. (taken from http://www.bbc.co.uk/dna/h2g2/A7209623)
There are a vast array, in general you'll find Blackberries, black and red currants, gooseberries, loganberries, raspberries, strawberries, tayberries,Rhubarb, apples, pears, plums, grapes, damsons,gages.Plus we have the hot houses and culturing centres that grow more exotic fruit in controlled environments
Vegans,on a daily basis,get different fruits and vegetables including chopped Cooked Vegetables,kale, chard, collards,fresh fruit, dried fruit,and much more.
blackberrys are purple/black and taste more sour then strawberrys which are red. Also strawberrys have there seeds on the ouside of the fruit. Blackberrys do not.

Raspberries, blackberries, bramble berries and others similar berries grow wild in several countries. Later they were cultivated to produce more fruit and grown commercially. They are wild in the US, most of Europe and parts of South America.
Irish agriculture is primarily a grass-based industry (i.e. silage, hay, and pasture). However, if the question is not based on industry and more on what can be grown in Ireland then when it comes to fruit that is suited to Ireland, things like gooseberry, grapes, apples, and black currant will grow fine. In addition, hardy vegetables like tomatoes, potatoes, onions, and squash will grow well there as well.
Ellagic acid is naturally formed in foods such as strawberries, walnuts and blackberries and has some anti-cancer properties . More information on ellagic acid and its effects on cancer can be found on the American Cancer Society's website.
Food was very rationed, most nights you got some strawberries/ raspberries and pieces of bread. Life was hard. Look up 'ww1 food' for more information! Good luck x
Depending on the concentration, manufactured acids are, such as hydrochloric and sulphuric.
Yes they do. Strawberries have that taste when you bite into it, it is sweet and cold. Then the aftertaste is probably the best part. That's what makes you want to take a bite of another strawberry
