Day 15 of 62: My Fruit/Vegetable of the Day is Cherries
I've actually been chowing down on some cherries for about a week. It seems like you can munch on them for a couple of hours and still barely consume calories. I haven't managed to get a tummy ache yet and we're on our second large bag in the house. Each cherry is a little bit of a surprise because one might be sweet, another one tart, then the next one both sweet and tart. Cherries are one of the super antioxidant fruits and the cherry industry also promotes them as helpful for relieving pain from muscle soreness and arthritis by relieving inflammation. The next time my wife complains about stiffness in her neck I'll know that's my queue to go get her some cherries from the fridge.
