    And then, because cranberries are horrible to eat, they make products from them and spike them with ungodly amounts of sugar. Then they lobby the FDA to make exceptions for them to not report “added sugars” since cranberry products are “basically the same as blueberries, bro”

    I know too much about them and their destructive practices, they’re assholes. Have a nice day.

        They are also good to protect your bladder if you take too much ketamine.

        Keep in mind though that they do not heal. They protect against damage and infections but infections don’t just go away.

      Why is there so much hate on bitter. Bitter is superior to sweet in every way. The best pastries are the ones that use cranberries instead of blueberries. Sugar is even added to blueberries and strawberries as if that made them more desirable. The best pastries are minimalist with sugar. Orange-cranberry bread is one of the best combinations.
