Question on Raspberries

I have raspberries in my garden... but no clue when they are ripe. They feel quite hard now, they should be soft, right? --Enjoydotcom 14:42, 31 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

yes, should be soft and sweet (not tart). if they are hard they need water and probably it is too sunny.

---

If they come off the bush easily they are ripe if they are hard or impossible to take off the bush then they are not ready yet (they should leave the center stem on the bush).

Another Question

Are Raspberries a North American plant or European or Asian in origin?

Nutritional Chart

I can't find a nutritional chart any where on the web about Raspberries not even on this </http://www.nal.usda.gov/fnic/foodcomp/search/> website. I think every page on a certain food should have a nutritional chart like the wolfberry page. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 67.60.59.249 (talk) 04:36, 9 February 2007 (UTC).[reply]

Picture Overkill

Umm.. most of the pics are redundant, of poor quality, or not particularly helpful or unique. I mean, do we really need a picture of raspberries, and then a picture of a wasp and raspberries? 76.22.201.109 06:44, 26 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
